Jade Goody Only Has Weeks To Live
Filed under: Anglophilia > Jade Goody > Sad Sad
There's nothing more that doctors can do for former Brit reality TV star, Jade Goody, in her battle against cervical cancer.
On Friday, she was told that she only has a few weeks to live.
Her cancer is spreading rapidly through her body as chemotherapy has failed to keep it at bay.
In an interview with the News of the World, Jade revealed that she was alone with her doctors when the tragic news was revealed. Disbelief made way for a heartbreaking acceptance:
"I couldn’t breathe when they told me, just screamed and cried and said, ‘Can’t anyone do anything to help me!’ Because a few weeks ago when they first told me the chemo hadn’t worked they said it didn’t have to be the end. They said there were lots of other medicines out there and there were other things they could do. I know they’ve done everything they can to help me and I’m grateful. But I really thought I might be OK. And I believed them. And there they were telling me it was the end. I didn’t want to believe it. I’m not blaming them. I know they’ve done everything they can to help me and I’m grateful. But I really thought I might be OK… But as I listened to them I just kept thinking, ‘It’s too late for me. My time has run out.’ All I want to do now is spend whatever time I have left with Jack and the kids."
Jade plans on making the most of the last days she'll have with us.
She's determined to have the wedding she's always wanted with her long-time boyfriend, Jack Tweed, and loving her sons as hard as she can:
“You know, when Jack came out of prison he had no idea how sick I was. And I know this is hard for him because he expected to get me back. He expected the chemo to work and that we’d have a life together as a family. I love Jack with all my heart and I want to be his wife more than anything in the world. And I will be. He’s devastated but he’s really trying to hold it together for me. But as soon as he found out I was going to die he just said, ‘Right then we’re getting married. You’re a special woman, I love you and I would be honoured to call you my wife. And I don’t care if it’s just for a few weeks’.” Jade knows that at 27 she’s too young to die. And, yes, she wants to rant and rail and scream: “I want to ask God why he couldn’t have given me more time with my boys. Just a bit—just enough to hear them laugh a few more times, to see that they’re happy, to write them long letters so I can tell them who I was and how much I loved them and remind them about all the things we did together. Because they might forget me. And I can’t bear the thought of that. I’ve decided I’m going to make them a Memory Box and put in lots of things that will remind them of me and what we did together. And maybe when they’re older it will help them remember.”
So, so, so sad.
Jade, you're in our thoughts.

This sort of thing is just so senseless. So sad. My thoughts are def with her and her family. Hugs and love. Love every day people.
sad
To all families enduring this pain, prayers for strength and peace.
Well, Perez, she's been told to take care of her personal affairs. God bless her. I can only hope YOU and OTHERS leave her the HELL ALONE!
so sad
wow i hope she keeps fighting for it i hope God blesses her with life..this is so sad
I hope that Jade does take advantage of her remaining time - & has her dream wedding
My sister is going through chemotherapy & has undergone radiation - & its truly frightening when there is news, that it sometimes doesn't work, and doesn't stop it (cancer) from spreading.
I wish her the very best
With much love
Martha
AWwwwwwwwwwww jadeee
me and gem love you
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Very, very sad. Such a young woman with young kids dying is senseless. Tragic.
Completely and utterly horrible. I hope that whatever time she has left is happy! Jack sounds like a great guy (despite his past) and her kids will never forget their mom!
Sending positive thoughts and all the best to her and her own x
reading her heartbreaking story makes me realize how blessed i am not to be sick, i feel lucky i don't have to go through such a nightmare, not to mention my family.
sometimes we forget we have it easy and complain about our lives. now THIS is the real drama.
i hope she'll have the wedding she's been dreaming of.
I hope her remaining time is as beautiful as her words. Who the papz portrayed her as and who we loved to believe she was is irrelevant now. I wish her peace.
This is so awful. She is only 27 !
God bless you, Jade.
This made me cry :'(
I hope they are able to at least maker her comfortable. I feel terrible for her family.
wow. 27?
spend time with the kids and the ones you love.
its hard, but spend these last weeks doing great things and leave your sons with their memories of a happy mom, despite what you went through. dont let them remember her sad, and in pain.
make your peace with god.
may god bless you.
Bummer.
Wow, this made me tear up. How fucking terrible. I just hope maybe there is a miracle and she will pull through. This is so heartbreaking.
i have no idea who she is, but her story is very sad. i can't even imagine what i would do if i was told i had a few weeks to live. i mean really, what do you say to your children? i hope that she's able to go to sleep one night and just not wake up, something peaceful like that. she will be in my thoughts.
Re: igotthehookupcellular@gmail.com –
I am so sorry to read about your sister going through awful cancer treatments. Best wishes to your sister and your family. xoxo
Everytime I read about this it makes me very sad.
I was 16 when I was diagnosed with Ovarian cancer, and luckily, 5 years later, I am in excellent health… but this sort of thing makes me wonder why I was so fortunate and others have to suffer. It's so terrible.
this made me cry…poor poor grl…my thoughts go out to her &her family
i feel so bad 4 her nd i think it's hardr 4 her coz she's famous nd pple wnt 2 take her picture. u would wish this on ur worse enemy. i jst wish her well xxxx
No matter the wrongs she has done in her life she doesn't deserve this. She has 2 gorgeous little boys who're going to have to say goodbye forever to the 1 constant in their lives.
I hope she has the wedding of her dream next week & that the next few weeks are as joy filled as they can be.
I can help you Jade. Contact me soonest .
Love
what a sad sad thing your in my thoughts and prayers all i can say now is for her to go to church and receive healing if possible
This breaks my heart…brings me to tears. Could you imagine for just a second a doctor telling you that you are going to die in a few weeks and knowing you will never see your children graduate, have girlfriends/boyfriends, get married, I can't bear to even think of it. Poor Jade, my prayers are with you babygirl….stay strong.
Re: sabrinajoy –
You are indeed one of the lucky ones. God bless you, sweetheart.
What could be a worse nightmare than knowing you are going to die and leave your two young children ? My own children are now adults and if I learned that I was going to die, it would be easier to accept, I have had a good live, my children are thriving. Thank you God. I will pray for Jade, I'm certainly glad that the awful name-calling has stopped at last. Let her live her last weeks in peace.
Im not sure who she is, but this is really sad. I am so sad for her and her family. May god be with her
I've never been a Jade fan but this is too sad for words. I just hope that when she does pass on that her children go to their father Jeff as apposed to Jack. Not because of the prison thing but it really is their best hope without their mother, Jack isn't though overly high of in the UK and for good reason. Having said that, I do hope she and Jack make the most of the time they have left and have a lovely wedding and hope that her two boys can cherish what time they have left with their mum.
As a parent to two little kids, this tears me up.
Fucking awful.
Poor thing. I feel for her–it must be very difficult.
I have no idea who this woman is, but this just made me cry. Heartbreaking.
Re: xxrachyxx – Let's hope this gives Jack the push he needs to be the guy Jade always hoped he'd be.
This just breaks my heart. One of my dance teachers died of pancreatic cancer back in 95, she was only 26 and had a 2 yr old son. All she wanted was to get married to her fiance and have a family. She got married, and died a few weeks later.
This story just makes me think of her, how much I miss her. I hate cancer. I HATE IT. God bless Jade and her family.
i never imagined she'd die frm this…this is so sad shes so honest n innocent..cnt imagine any1 deserving this…life sucks
totally heart breaking and terrible sad.
may GOD be with you through this toughest time.
hugs for her kids and hubby and family and friends.

So sad, this made me cry
At first I was sad but then I wanted to know who she was a did some research and she's only famous because she's been on tons of reality shows and is known for being racist. WTF> if she has a thing against people (indian people) for no reason it is just fucked up. I really believe in karma and I really think she fucked herself. Why is she even making your web site? Same question goes for amy winehouse… she only had one song and she's drug addict, big whoop. gimme something interesting!
sooo sad! i hope she enjoy every second of her life with her kids and hubby!
I can't imagine being only 27 and knowing I had weeks left to live. She's such a loving mother and has so brave in this battle. It hardly seems fair. I'm sorry for her, and hope she is at least comfortable at this time.
I don't know this lady but God bless her and my heart goes out to her and her family. So sad.
I have no idea who this is, but I am completely heartbroken for her.
cancer is evil. my mother is a 10 year survivor of breast cancer. my grandmother died of the disease and 2 of my uncles passed away from cancer. one from lung the other pancreatic. so sad. so young.
Re: sblueyez – She was bad on Big Brother, but the other 2 girls were the real racists.. they got away with it because they were a lot less famous than her, and so she got all the blame. She went on Indian Big Brother last year to make amends - which is where she was when she got the news about the cancer. Everything I just mentioned is documented on youtube. She's done some silly things but nothing makes her deserve this. I certainly wish her all the best, as we all make mistakes. Since the victim of the racist bullying was the first person to forgive her.. I think we all should, and just wish her the best from now on.
How sad. I didn't realize just how young she is. That makes this whole situation that much sadder. Is her children's father around or has she been raising them by herself? Hope her family stays strong and comforts her these last few weeks.
Very sad. Godspeed! Stay strong and prayers to your family! This is too much!
Re: sblueyez –
People get change and life itself helps with that.
They say that "Only and only remedy for stupidity is suffering"
Whoever connects to ETs puts his own health in risk c their very presence influence our souls light. Weak inner light results in weak resistance to whatever deaseases , infections etc. Whatever ETs are very threat to entire humanity in very many aspects.

Am I the only one wondering why she's talking to a tabloid when she received the news that she may only have weeks to live? If I knew I only had weeks to live, the last thing I'd want to do it waste my time talking to the media about it. How much time do you think she's losing with her family by running her mouth? I hate to sound insensitive, because I do feel sympathetic to anyone with cancer, but is that how she really wants to spend the rest of her time?
This is so sad, especially since it may have been preventable with regular PAP smears. Caught early enough, cervical cancer is relatively easy to treat with hysterectomy. I know…had it at 27 for the same cancer. There is also a vaccine to protect young women against the virus that most often causes cervical cancer. Check it out ladies, and see your doctor at least once a year for a pap, more if you change partners.
My heart breaks for this poor woman, and for those poor children who will soon be motherless.
So sad. I hope that her days to come will be as peaceful as possible… You're in my heart Jade.
God Bless you!!!
I cried when I heard this. As a mother of two it really hit me hard. Jade this isn't the life that counts its the afterlife. You will be free and happy and your boys will be with you forever someday.
Is she paying to say nice things about her? What a mess.
I can't even imagine.
:-(
Never been a huge fan of hers but this is awful, read it in the paper (news of the world) this morning…..
God Bless her & her family
Re: Bravo –
I do feel incredibly sad for her, I really do. Obviously, no one 'deserves' cancer - no matter if they recover or not. However, I don't think it's easy to forget what she's done. Sure, she acted badly and must realize it now, but I don't think she was completely innocent in Celeb BB either, and it's not fair to say the other two were racists and Jade wasn't. I only wish her the best in her life now and the remaining time she has, but am merely only saying that some people won't forgive/forget which yes, is sad.
bless Jade & her family =(
I m sorry she s EXPOSING her family to this CIRCUS … for what I can remember the only things she s famous for is for being racist and for getting cancer … cervix cancer last 10- 12 years in developing .. so the only good message about this is BE CAREFULL WHEN YOU HAVE SEX cause it starts with HPV ( And not everybody can cry in front of a camera to get MONEY FROM IT )
Jade might have mistakingly said and done the wrong things in front of
the cameras in the past. At the end of the day she has always been herself
and i believe that what she is doing at the moment is so brave. Jade is
securing her childrens future by working throughout her illnes and also raising
awarness that could end up saving many young girls lives.
GOD BLESS JADE AND HER FAMILY - SHE WILL BE IN MY THOUGHTS AND
PRAYERS
This is horrible news
I almost cried when I heard… She has 2 kids for Gods sake! She doesn't deserve this!
A daughter shouldn't die before her mother… Or grandma even!
So sad! xx
I don't want to sound mean, but I don't know why, I kinda laugh whenever I hear anything about whoever this is.
This is SO sad =(
This is heartbreaking and unfair.
Poor thing. Her life will definitely save others, as perhaps women will keep on top of pap smears and their health care regularly. It's too bad and so sad that her own life will be cut short. I hope her last moments are filled with love and connection and sharing with all of those near her.
THis is soo sad. If i was her i would be like you better help me or do somthing this is horrible dont tell me that! Poor girl thats horrible!
Nothing is worth more than one's health. My thoughts and prayers are with Jade. Absolutely tragic turn of events.

BEST WISHES JADE DARLING!!!!!
.
so sad sooo sad…
I still cant believe she is that sick.. how is that possible??
its crazy what life is doing to her.
maybe she needs to get a second opinion from doctors from elsewhere.. america, japan, india ..
I just read the entire article on the News of The World website, its so so sad
Shilpa Shetty is having the last laugh.
Re: BGHO –
She has been very vocal as to why she is talking to the tabloids and carrying on with her tv show - she wanted to be sure that whatever happened to her her little boys would be ok financially. She herself didn't have a good upbringing and she doesn't want that for her kids.
I never used to like her but after watching her show since she was diagnosed I have the upmost respect and wish her all the best for the time she has left.
Wouldn't wish such pain on anyone. What a shame.
Please know that many people are praying for you and wishing the best for you. You seem very brave…God bless.
She needn't worry about being remembered. Her little boys will always know who she is. They will be able to bring her smile to mind whenever they need cheering up, and they'll possess the same fighting spirit throughout their lives. As well, her husband-to-be will forever have a place in his heart for her. She can be glowing with pride that she brought two fabulous boys into the world. What an amazing legacy. Don't be sad, I hope what time she has left is filled with joy, amazement and wonder at things that simply couldn't have been without her.
This is so sad!
How sad. Talk about putting things in perspective. My kids were making me feel like I was going to drop my basket a few minutes ago, so I sent my husband out to dinner with them for some peace and quite. I'll be giving them big hugs the minute they walk through the door. My prayers go out to her and her family.
very saddened by this. i hope by some miracle she survives this. hope god sends a miracle her way. god bless you and your beautiful family jade
Sad, yes. Made more sad by its preventability. People's reflections here on other forms of cancer illustrate the misconception that all cancers are created equal. Pancreatic or l–rapidly developing, usually occult, no clear causal agent. Cervical cancer is a slow growing lesion that generally takes years to become more than localized. It is caused by an STD, HPV. Deaths from cervical cancer have been nearly eradicated in this country through early detection–in the form of screening pap smears and early treatment. To see a lesion this late generally indicates a long period of neglect of or lack of access to medical treatment. In addition, this disease is now largely preventable through the Gardasil vaccine, which all young females should consider. Hopefully, her illness will serve to raise awareness and prevent more utterly unecessary deaths from the same disease.
Re: yogini724 –
Sorry to disagree but that vaccine DOESN T PROTECT againts all HPV types .. remember the most agressive are 16, 18, 31, 33 .. so it s nott such a miracle protection and it has SIDE EFFECTS, best protection is SAFE SEX
[ 40 P L U S S E E K I N G . C 0 M ] is really a funny and interesting place to meet 40 plus and attractive women or hot men. Many hottie photos at this site, you can enjoy latest interesting photos or talk about hot topic with other friends. I've met many thoughtful 40plus singles who were trying to find true love.
Not to make light of it, but you said that a few months back…
Re: BGHO –
yes, youre the only one you ignorant retard.
This whole story is awful, I will say a prayer.
Now is not the time to be getting married. If it wasn't important before, it is not relevant now. She has to think of the kids totally. The adult can take care of himself.
Damn this is sad. I don't even know this person… I don't have to. No one should have to go through cancer. It sucks for everyone. And this is just proof, once again, that all of our billions of donations are not doing much. When are they going to study genetics and viruses just a tad more regarding this "umbrella term" called cancer. No two cancers are the same… this is fucked. WE NEED CURES. Billions of dollars are spent annually on celebrities and athletes… but what about fucking cancer?????
Could you even imagine looking at your very own babies and knowing you only have a few more weeks with them. How awful. God bless her.
At first, I was so annoyed by the fact that she was always talking to the media about this, but I read an article on the Daily Mail and her publicist or whoever was just saying that she's trying to make money for her sons so they will be able to have a good life. This is so horrible, I feel so sad for her that she won't be able to see her sons grow up and become men. At least she'll be able to marry the love of her life before she dies.
Re: survivor – It is sad because it is too late for her, but like you, I have alot of problems too. I did not need a hysterectomy, but I was borderline cancer and had to have part of my cervice removed. Was able to get pregnant afterward, but had trouble carrying most of the pregnancies to term. Why isn't Perez giving one on his service type anouncements on something like this? Almost all the deaths of cervical cancer can be prevented with regular accurate pap smears. In the future, the cases of cervical cancer will be going down with the introduction of the gardisil vacine which guards against some of the HPV viruses(not all). I hope her children are well taken care of in the future
That is really, really heartbreaking. I don't even know anything about this woman aside from what I've read on here, but lordie does my heart go out to her and her family.
This is horrible. I would never wish cancer on anyone. I have always liked jade myself, and think the whole Big Brother racism thing was blown out of proportion.
She is selling her story now to make money for her sons, and fair play to her. She has never said she is anything more than a reality star. she has invested a lot of time and energy in other projects and she has kept going. She has outlives the shelf life of a reality star.
My heart goes out to anyone with cancer and their families!
dx
this is sad and shocking, yet i hope it gives us all space to address our own mortality. the fact is, we are all going to die. the difference is, jade knows when and has time to prepare. she is fortunate. some die in their mother's womb, some as infants, some as children, some as teens… we never know when. take a moment to address your own mortality and consider your own death. the more you visualise a peaceful death, the less of a shock it will be to you. we will all face this moment. give it some thought.
WOW! This is terrible!! Lots of cancer victims are told a final day to their life, and live a lifetime! I pray for you Jade!!
Jade is a very Brave lady. My thoughts are with her and her family.
