Jade Goody has been told by doctors that they are powerless to stop her cancer from spreading further and have given her, possibly, just weeks left.

My heart goes out to her and her two little boys.

To be honest, I have never had a good word to say for Jade in the past. She has a thug mother, a thug boyfriend and was a racist bully herself on BB. However, she is what? 27 years old with two little boys. Terribly sad and she must be so frightened right now. :(

Cancer runs in my family so I know what it is like.

But she is in a difficult position here. She surely wouldn't want her children to see her slowly and painfully die.

I would go and see them, explain things to them (because children appreciate things being explained to them). Then I would leave them before I deteriorated to save them from the horror of watching me die horribly. Children should be exposed carefully to the bad things in life.

The ages of the little boys are too young to watch their mum go through this. I was an adult when i watched my parents and sister die, and it's hard to deal with as an adult.

However, what the heck do you tell them at that age and who tells them?

Jade became famous in Britain from a programme called Big Brother. It's where they put ordinary members of the public into a house all together and film them 24/7. Unfortuanely, Jade nearly cost the TV channel with her rascist remarks to an Indian actress, 'Shilpa Shetty'. She lost most of her work conracts through it and the public turned on her. However, i agreed as i watched the prog and she was evil i must say. Her mother admited in the media that she beat Jade as a child which is why i'm concerned that her two lovely little boys should be left with that woman. Jade's boyfriend, 'Jack Tweedy' was sentenced to 18 months prison for a vicious assault on a lad with a golf club.

The truth. You always tell children the truth and answer their questions truthfully. And it would be better coming from the mother. Tell them lies and they always end up with more questions and more misunderstandings.

It is actually harder for an adult to deal with than for a child.

At this rate, I may well start agreeing with Spot that children should be raised in an institution.

In the press a few days ago, there was an article about her mother and boyfriend arguing around her sick bed in the hospital. I thought 'my god, they can't even do that in private'. What loathsome people?

The father of the two boys, Jeff Brazier' seems half decent. I hope he gets full custody and keeps that pair away from the kids. Let's been honest here..... after the way Jade has been treated by her hospital after they mis-diagnosed her twice, there is bound to be a payout from the NHS. That, along with royaltie's from any work she's done. However, that's me being cynical again.

Can't blame you being cynical, Oscar. Life has a tendency of doing that to the best of us. God knows why.:wah:

I have always liked Jade. She didnt have a good childhood, well not much of a life at all really until she went on Big brother. When she was on Bb the first time i felt sorry for her, she is not the sharpest tool in the box, but that isnt a crime and dont make her a bad person, and i didnt like the way the other housemates laughed at her and basically took the P. If a housemate was treated that way now there would be an uproar:thinking: In the celebrity Big brother, i still think she wasnt racist but more just a bit thick and maybe ignorant, she didnt like Shilpa, (her out of s club 7 didnt help and in fact encuraged, i think she was the worst) but i think her reasons for not liking her had nothing to do with race, and if it was anyone else she would have said stupid remarks about them also. I think she basically has a good heart. I am happy she got some pleasure and joy out of her short life through her fame due to the first BB she was on, she got to feel important and wanted for once. My heart goes out to her and her children and i hope her children still have a chance of a much happier childhood than hers:-4

I wasnt able to comment on this earleir, having 3 friends (women) with terminal cancer right now it was too close to home and it made me weep yesterday.



Jade is such a couragous and strong woman, she hasnt had it easy and has turned her life around and produced two beatiful boys of whom she loves to pieces. Her mother Jackie for all her previous failings to Jade has come up trumps and helped her out with the children and has been her rock.



Nobody is perfect, we all deserve second chances. I like Jade, I like that she tries hard to perfect what she has continually. I like the fact that she laughs at herself and does everything to give her children the best she can.



Now she is dying and she wants to spend her last days with her kids, who would deny her that, her kids would be devastated if they knew she kept away from them during the last moments of her life, I know I would.



Let the girl die on her terms, its the least we can do.

There was more in the press yesterday and that obnoxious creep of an agent 'Max Clifford' was speaking for her. Apparently, her death is to be filmed right up to the day she passes. I just can not believe that this will help any young woman with terminal cancer. I understand that she needs to make as much money as she can now while she's alive for her two boys. As i am for-ever the old cynic, i don't believe that filming her last moments is anything more than manipultaion of Clifford getting his cut.

Your probably right Oscar, however, I for one dont care as long as Jade herself feels happy in doing so and that she thinks she is doing all she can money wise to secure her lads future. Then she will be able to die knowing she did her best, thats all most of us want.



Since BB she has lived most of her life on TV, It's something she does well and earns her money...My heart truly hurts for her.

That is a nice post Chezzie.

If stupid tv producers want to throw money at you for being a little intellectually challenged that makes them the stupid ones. This poor young women who has done nothing wrong (being a little thick is not a crime) has had some terrible things said against her. She has had it tough but she is a caring and loving mother, that makes her even more admirable( the abused sometimes turn into abusers), my heart goes out to her and her children. I hope she suffers little, i know there is not much chance of that as my Mother, Father, brother in law (in his 30s) and many friends have died of this terrible disease and i have watched them all.

God bless her and care for her and forgive the ignorant that wish her harm.

I wish my mum was as caring as her, may she find peace in a better place.

Sorry but i dis-agree my little welsh rare-bit.

My sister died of breast cancer young leaving 3 young children and as you know, my husband is looking at similar. I will sound harsh here but i do think for the sake of her kids, to die privately. Those boys will some day be reading and watching tv repeats of their mothers last moments. The tv companies who even consider broadcating anything like that are not helping women with cancer...... they are making blood money out of another persons suffering and using two young boys into the bargain.

If she wants to help other young women, she is better off suing the arss off the NHS who mis-diagnosed her twice. That will give a large payout for her son's future instead of showing her last moments in magazines and on tv with her agent, family and tv companies taking their cut. If she persue's the NHS that will help other women by highlighting what happened for them to mis-diagnose her and hopefully stop them from doing it to another young woman.

When Jade first had abnormal smear tests and was told she needed treatment, she ignored them and brushed it under the carpet as do many young girls believe me its my area of work. I havent read anything about her being misdiagnosed myself so cant comment.

We are all different, we all do things differently and what works for one wouldnt work for someone else, I just dont see how critising her for doing what she feels right for her and her family will help..This is her living nightmare that will result in her death, let her chose how she plays her last days out how she sees fit. Nobody intervenes whilst she is bringing her kids up when she is healthy. She has done a brilliant job and I applaud her honesty and guts.

Every single person has died of cancer in mine and hubs family, my aunt left 3 kids after surviving cancer 3 times, we all have past experiences we can draw on but at the end of the day, Jade has to do whats right for her and her family...Its her right.

There was an interview in one of the tabloids recently where she stated that although she had been mis-diagnosed twice, Jade did not want to sue the NHS. Also 'Max Clifford' took her out of her hospital and put her under his own doctor. It was only then that the tumor was found in the bowel.

If what she says in this interview is correct then i find a million £ wedding and her last moments on tv, absolutely abhorant and i think she will lose sympathy if she goes ahead.

'I’ve lived in front of cameras. And maybe I’ll die in front of them': Jade Goody faces terror of having only weeks to live | Mail Online

Jade has not lived her life infront of the camera's, she has for the past 7 years. After the Shilpa Shetty episode, she was never going to work here again and lost all her contracts. No tv company or magazine would touch her with a barge pole. Now she is dying, she is on our screens and in our newspapers...... I find the whole thing totally hypocritical.

I directed my post more at the magazines and tv companies who would not touch her before she was diagnosed with cancer. In one of her interviews she said that she was doing the Indian BB for the money as no-one would give her work here. Now she's dying, they want to pay her and it's hypocritical. I don't believe any one is doing it because they care as 'Clifford' professes. There's money in it for them.

of course they probably dont care, but hey she is using them as well as they are using her i thnk ,, so fair do's,, and if it was me i wouldnt give a dam what anyone thought or said about how i chose to deal with it ,,, like i said earlier extreme circumstances bring extreme reaction, She may not be thinking straight who knows ,, she has to just do what she thinks ,,im not going to judge, im not in her shoes:thinking:

I just asked Mr O who has cancer himself and he believes that for the sake of her boys she should do things with dignity.

Another good point he made was that if 'Max Cliffored' and all his millions cared that much, he could set up a trust fund for the boys and not parade her infront of the camera's.

Million £ wedding? She is not an a list celeb. She won't get that back from magazines and newspapers. She's better advised to put the million into a high interest account now for her boys.

The best I can hope for this dreadful blight of a woman is that Jack Tweed's parole gets revoked before the weekend and that, in an unexpected onset of goodwill and discrete reticence, the entire British press together with all the TV and radio channels never mention her name again. We can either have a return of civilized values in this country or we can have more publicity for Jane Goody, we can't have both.

Actually Oscar..



Jade Goody, the reality television celebrity who has been told that she has just months to live, is expected to earn close to £1 million from the television and magazine rights to her wedding being held this weekend.

Goody, who became a household name after appearing on Big Brother seven years ago, has said that she will use the money to safeguard the future of her children, Bobby, 5, and Freddie, 4, after her death.

It is understood that she will earn about £700,000 from OK! magazine, which has also secured the rights to pictures of her sons’ christening, and about £100,000 from Living TV. She is also in talks to take part in an interview with Piers Morgan, the former editor of the Daily Mirror, for ITV.

We can either have a return of civilized values in this country or we can have more publicity for Jane Goody, we can't have both.


Jade...her name is Jade.. the pr peeps need to step up and get her more publicity so people remember her name.

From what I gather Max Clifford wants nothing to do with the filming of Jade's death. In his words "It's not going to happen".

Max himself has had prostrate cancer and his wife died of bone cancer in 2003.

Elton John has apparently offered his mansion as a wedding venue.



If getting married makes this girl happy in her last weeks then who would begrudge her. Making money out of it ????? Thousands do !



I've never been a Jade fan and I have options.....don't read the articles, don't buy the magazines and don't watch the TV bits.



MY one big concern.....if she marries her Jack he will almost certainly inherit quite a lot of her money....that thought concerns me more than anything

I'm no fan of reality television or celebrity culture, but this girl as a human being has a right to decide how she chooses to die, and if thats in the media, then so be it, it is her decision, and she does't have a lot of decisions left to make now.

Her reasons are perfectly understandable, and straightforward.

All of the talk about what it means as a story in a wider context should. I suppose, be left alone for now. Out of respect for a dying person.

What is amazing is the amount of vitriol being levelled at Jade Goody. If she annoys you that much don't buy OK magazine, don't watch her dying on television. personally I didn't watch her in big brother or any of her other TV ventures. How she chooses to die is her choice and hers alone to make. It's also her choice how she makes arrangements for her children. In any case she'll be dead soon and what you think of her won't matter-assuming it does matter to her now. If she gets more women to go for cervical smears she will have achieved more than all the campaigns and those who disapprove of her lifestyle have managed to do.

Why on earth would you believe that? No doubt she has made a will and taken steps to put the money in trust for her children so it can't be squandered by anyone. Even without a will he can't get it all and the courts would act to protect he interest of minors in an intestacy situation. the days when a husband had first claim on everything a wife has is long past.

Since i last posted I have seen interviews with 'Clifford' and 'Morgan' and read a very moving account from'Carole Malone'.

'Clifford's' wife died from cancer 6 years ago and he says he wants no part of her death filmed live but he said he is worried that in the 11th hour when she may not be lucid, the one's who will take advantage of the situation will be flocking around her possibly with offers of enormous sums of money that she will feel unable to refuse.

'Morgan' is not sure as yet if he wants to do an interview with her.

It's hard for me to watch Jade go downhill so quickly as seeing her on TV and in papers even unintentionally is like 'Groundhog day' of my sister dying young from breast cancer that also spread to her liver. Frankly, i don't want this rammed down my throat because she even the bald head is a constant reminder of my sister and the young children she left behind. That's me however and has nothing to do with Jade's circumstances. What i do know from experience of my sister is that she will become less lucid as the days go on. She will be pumped full of all kinds of drugs that will affect her rational. I am more worried now of the Ghouls taking advantage of her that her making her death public.

I stand by what i said in the beggining of this thread that her mother is a disgusting specimen and i don't care how the media are prtraying her now as the mother Theresa who has been her daughters rock. Her boyfriend is a violent thug who attacked an innocent lad with a golf club. the first blow was to the head and i remember when he was jailed, the judge saying he was lucky the lad hadn't died. Even with all the money that Jade will make, and her wish for her boys to have a better life than she did, these two vile specimens will be an influence in these boys lives and i wouldn't trust either with my cat let alone a child.

If Jade wants a fairy-tale wedding then no-one should begrudge her that and well done to Al-Fayed for giving her the £35,000 designer dress. It would be nice to think of people tuning in to the wedding to see her marry that man she loves but it is fact that many will tune in only to lavish in how ill she looks.

I remember a few months ago Jade told the Sun newspaper that she was upset because no 'Celebs' had contacted her when she was diagnosed. On the readers views, the Sun printed some of the nastiest comments including people saying that she was no celeb herself so why she she expect them to contact her now. The wedding is apparently going to see the likes of Simon Cowell as guests, Yeah, well where were you when she was crying that she had been snubbed by everyone in celeb world? Even that battered old hack 'carole Malone' who wrote a very touching piece on her and will apparently be there at the end was one of the many media sources who wouldn't touch her with a bargepole after the BB row. Jade agreed to the Indian BB as she told the press that she was desperate for the money as she was broke. Where were all these caring hacks then when she needed to ccontinue to feed and clothe her boys? They are all parasites who induce me to vomit in the way they are now doing the caring act around her bedside.

Jade does have a big following in this country as Queen of Chav's but everyone around her is using her. Jade is now believing that these people actually care for her and it is that reason why now she has my utmost sympathy. I hope to god she has been smart enough to make lawyers the executers of her will and estate so the parasitic mother and boyfriend don't see a penny.

At least the father of the boys has remained dignified throughout this and is not in the queue for his story to be bought up by Fleet Street. I hope he gets full custody of the boys and makes sure those parisites go no-where near them.

A marriage voids all previous wills and the husband inherits everything if she fails to make another before dying. Even if she does make one she has to make sufficient provision for the lifetime needs of her husband, given that he was financially dependent on her before her death, before any can go to her children.

Why would you be so bothered? Its her life, Im sure she is well informed of what will happen to her estate once she dies, If their is one thing Jade is good at is money. She is very astute in that department.

I dont understand why you devote so much time on her if you dislike her and her family and what she is doing. If that were me id not be starting threads on her or finding new news clippings or reading about her. All the topics in the news that im not interested in are ignored. I dont understand why people dont do that with Jade if they find it all so repulsive. By making this thread for her, your giving her more publicity but hey im not complaining:D..

Did you read this bit?

Miss Goody with the noblest of motives in mind: a determination to give her young sons the education and the childhood chances that she never enjoyed herself and a hope that her own suffering may save others.

'Jade will certainly be earning hundreds of thousands of pounds over the next few weeks,' her spokesman, Max Clifford, tells me. 'But she is arranging her affairs to make sure her sons get the best possible start in life. And she is genuinely thrilled to hear that, because of her, the numbers of women being tested for cervical cancer have gone up by 21 per cent.'

There is, surely, something both moving and inspirational in the dying wishes of a girl who always dreamed of fame. So, having found it, what does she really want? She wants a white wedding and a solid education for her children.


That in itself should be permission for her to be allowed to get on with her wedding and the last days of her life without criticism.

Weather anyone likes or dislikes her, it is hard to avoid her in the press. I still stand by the fact that i was disgusted with the way she treated 'Shilpa Shetty'. That does not stop me having compassion for her plight now. I personally think it's wrong to play out your death on TV. It's only my opinion but it is now a huge debate across the country that many people are commenting on.

Mt aversion is more aimed at the people who have suddenly become her 'rock'. They are all hypocrites.

I wasn't refering to you Spot. I put the question in relation to the article i linked and my question was : Is she conning us or the media conning her, or indeed her boyfriend and mother conning her and the media?

The article's cynical approach led me to ask the question.

How was the section of text in the quote box related to that, then? I was talking factually with gmc about inheritance law in England and Wales and I got "Who's conning who?" thrown at me. Not, unfathomably, even "Who's conning whom?".

I haven't opened it, I merely note that it isn't about inheritance law in England and Wales and I've been aspersed.

Given the amount of times i have been aspersed, most of FG members would look to their defences at some time or another based on that theory. Don't be so chuffy.
