Jade Goody: My tumour was falling out when I went to the loo

Reality TV star went through hell before she was diagnosed with cancer

Jade Goody has revealed that she could actually see her internal tumour before she was diagnosed with cervical cancer.

The Big Brother star endured an 8-hour operation to remove her womb last month and is devastated the disease went undetected for so long.

‘The thing is the tumour was so big I had it falling out of me while I was on the loo,’ she says.

‘I had black stuff falling out of me. It was like tar. I remember being at the doctor and sobbing: “What’s wrong with me?”’

But Jade, 27, is determined to live for her sons Bobby, 5, and Freddie, 4.

‘I was told if they hadn’t found the tumour when they had I would have just 3 months to live, that I could be dead by Christmas,’ she tells OK!

‘But I have two children so I am going to fight. If they weren’t here I might have just given up. I’d rather they try everything to make me better, however hard it is and go through what I have to.’

After the op, Jade was informed the cancer had spread. She is believed to have a 50% chance of survival.
