Jade Goody

Postby Ninja Mania » Wed Feb 04, 2009 11:58 am

Sad sad news indeed, I liked her in your face attitude in B.B, and only 27, life deals some cruel hands.
..........................................................................................................................

Doctors diagnosed the former Big Brother contestant with cervical cancer last August and she has been receiving chemotherapy since.

Medics have now told Goody that cancer has been found in her liver, bowel and groin.

The 27-year-old told The Sun newspaper: "I am frightened and I am angry. I don't want to die because I have so much to live for."

"It's awful. The doctors have confirmed the worst," Goody told the Sun.

"To try and remain positive, I am hoping a new type of treatment will suppress and control the cancer, which is very aggressive. I'm in a nightmare."

A previous estimate of 40% chance of cure has been scrapped, and Goody will now be treated purely to prolong her life rather than to get rid of the disease.

Goody had discharged herself from hospital to spend time with of two young sons, Bobby and Freddie, in their Essex home.

But she was taken back to London's Royal Marsden hospital on Sunday after becoming violently ill and collapsing.

Her 21-year-old boyfriend Jack Tweed is said to be "numb" over the news.

Whilst I feel sympathy for her sons, she is a talentless, thick, racist, bigotted waste of time and space and the very epitomy of what is wrong with this country. She won't be missed. Her mother is no better and her partner is a convicted criminal.

Got my tin hat on for the flak, but I suspect I'm writing what many others are thinking?

There are a lot of people who also suffer from this terrible illness , they have not had the chance to sell their story to a newspaper.
I only hope the money she has earned from her various public outcries will help the children , if the worst happens( I only hope it does't get to that for everybody concerned )
Other people with the same condition will not be able to help provide for their kids future as they will never had anywhere near the cash she has demanded for her stories and appearances , so lets all hope Jade has managed to save some and not lost it all.

While I am certainly not her biggest fan I do think your comments are a bit harsh! I saw a bit of an old interview with her this morning where she made it quite clear that big houses and flash cars are not important but providing for the future of her children is what really matters!! If she can sell her story to The Sun for a huge amount of money to provide for them then so be it!!

Yeh your right, he,s a real criminal aint he, he stood up to a bunch of youths who were causing trouble. That really is a criminal hey.
No matter what she is, or for that matter any of her family are, you would,nt wish this disease on anyone, especially someone with a couple of young kids, but hey, her young boyfriend stood up to a gang and yes beat the shit out of one of them so she wont be missed. Pathetic response.

I feel sorry for anyone with this terrible dsease .Statistics show that 90% of the population have and will be effected with it either themselves or friends or family at some time in their lifetime .She is no different in that respect ,but the reason she is selling her story and has so much news coverage ,is so her children will have some money and security after she has gone .Fair play to her ,she is not crying and shouting woe is me ,she is getting on with it ,to me that is great ,if i was in her shoes i would like to see my family right .As far as the B.B racism carry on she was made an escape goat by the P.C. brigade who are now running this country .Whatever happened to freedom of choice and freedom of speech .If it was as bad as it was made out to be then why was she invited on to the Indian version .Give the girl a chance in a few months time when she is gone nobody will even remember her except her two poor wee boys. :(

Maybe because she has Max Clifford as a PR spokesman?

Quite an incredible statement really. :shock: I'm sure she WILL actually be sorely missed by a number of people, most of all though by her 2 young sons, her partner and her mother. She might be guilty of being a 'daft lassie', but hardly the crime of the century. So, regardless of what you think of her, that really was a pretty poor statement.

Whatever this poor girl has done in the past, she doesn't deserve some of the comments written, she is dying of cancer for God's sake, leaving two small boys without a mother. How that feels must be unthinkable.We have all said and done wrong thinks in life, but we certainly don't deserve to be slagged off when we are at our most vulnerable, shame on you... :(

Well said MKT. Agree entirely.


I find it sad that someone would make the time to compose and post negative, hurtful sentiments on this forum.

Witchnettle had a suitable turn of phrase for times such as these: Thumper said it in Bambi, as I recall:

If you can't say something nice... don't say nothing at all

The absence of any compassion in some of the posts in this thread is repugnant.

You should be ashamed of yourself Ticketty Boo ..cant believe you could make such a harsh statement. You obviously do not know what it is like to lose someone to this awful disease.
