Reality TV star says doctors have spelt out worst-case scenario if cancer has spread

Thursday, 4 September 2008

Jade Goody has revealed that she not reach the age of 40 because of her cervical cancer.

The reality TV star will need to undergo further tests to see if the disease has spread – and if it has, her chances of beating the cancer will be dramatically reduced.

Jade, 27, was diagnosed last month and now faces a hysterectomy and intensive chemotherapy.

‘They told me about the worst-case scenario, where I might not even survive 10 years,’ she told a friend, who has spoken to the Daily Mirror. ‘I'm all over the place. I can't stop crying.’

Jade is mum to Bobby Jack, 5, and Freddie, 3. But she always wanted to have more kids.

‘I have now had to give up any hope of having children, but I'm already thinking about adopting,’ she said to her pal.

I thought it was 3 months she had? Now it's 10 years? Does she really have cancer at all or is it some kind of celebrity cancer which never gets treated?

I cannot believe the amount of 'exclusive' interviews Jade Goody is giving to the press!! Each time you are paying money to hear her despair that she might not be able to have more children! MORE CHILDREN how about the woman that have been in the same situation as Jade (or worse) & are facing up to life with no chance of conceiving naturally. I am only writing to you as I am one of these people very lucky to be here after discovering I had cervical cancer at age 25. I went through chemo, radiotherapy & brachytherapy (internal radiotherapy) in 2004. With the love of my family & friends and a positive attitude I went through the treatment with a smile on my face at the specialist Weston Park Hospital in Sheffield. I now face everyday with the though that I cannot conceive naturally but this is overshadowed by the thought that I am so happy to be still here! You really need to think about what you are printing & the effects of the woman reading this article who have gone through the diagnosis of any form of cancer.

How can she even think about adopting!If she may not live beyond 10 years,she should be concentraing on looking forward to the limited time she may have with her own children.
