Jade Goody's Cancer Cells Shrinking

Karl Erikson — Sat, 10 Jan 2009 19:10:00 GMT

Looks like great news for former Big Brother star Jade Goody: her chemotherapy sessions seem to be working. Jade was diagnosed with cervical cancer last summer.

"I do have good news," she says, "I was told my cancer cells have shrunk a little, which means the chemo is working. But it's too soon to say if I have a better chance of survival."

Jade, 27, had an operation last week for a blocked kidney. "Once every month, for the next 12 months, I have to have two types of chemo drugs pumped into me through a tube. It takes 5 hours altogether. It doesn't hurt, but it makes me feel really sick afterwards."

The worst part is her appetite. "I get hungry," Jade says, "but everything I eat tastes like metal and I throw it up. I'm sick three times a day and it's going to get worse."

Great news for the hoidays, that's for sure!

Jade Goody Is Preparing For Death

trix — Mon, 13 Oct 2008 12:31:00 GMT

Jade Goody is growing up fast and facing issues that no one should have to face. She is only 27, has two young boys, and a 50-50 chance to live. Sadly, her cervical cancer metastasized to her stomach lining, and her doctor warned, "That her chances of survival aren't good."

With that in mind Jade has begun to make plans for her funeral saying, “I’d want to have an open funeral and let everyone who wanted to come along. I want people to cry over me! And I don’t want people to have a booze up.”
She also has to decide who will take care of her sons Bobby and Freddie. Her doctor warned her that her chances of survival aren't good so she has to start think about more unpleasant things. She said, "The only person good enough for my kids is me."
Could you imagine having to decide that? I cannot. I know it's one of those things that we all need to take care of and that having a living will is a really good idea, but it's too scary.

She's is going through all of this alone because her on again/off again boyfriend Jack, is in jail.

Jade Goody Shocked and Hurt by Death Predicting Website

Karl Erikson — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 16:10:00 GMT

Jade Goody's lawyers are now trying to shut down a really sick website, which is taking bets on when Jade will die. Jade, 27, was diagnosed with cervical cancer in September and recently underwent a full hysterectomy in an effort to halt the cancer's spread.

Now there's a web site - whenwilljadegoodydie.com - that is not only creating a pool of bets on when Goody will die, but really slamming her. Here is some of the shit they're saying:

"Jade Goody started out as a loud mouth nobody and after her appearances on Big Brother UK and their Big Brother Celebrity Special she is still a loud mouth nobody. And that is exactly the reason for this site. Jade Goody has done nothing and we mean nothing to enhance life on this planet. She fills the tabloid pages with crap about herself.

"She’s an egotistical twat who can’t have a normal relationship as it would mean she’d have to share herself with somebody else than herself. And yet the tabloids still give her their newspaper inches while they should be giving her 10 inches of red hot steel up her ass. She bullied and made racist remarks to a fellow Big Brother Celebrity contestant and was puked upon by the UK and India.

"To give her shit covered star a new shine she recently went over to India to participate in their version of Big Brother (presented by the person she bullied and discriminated against). While in the house Jade Goody got the news she was diagnosed with cancer. Aweful news really. For anyone. Even Jade Goody. But Jade Goody’s bad news turned into a tabloid marathon of Jade bullshit.

"Jade Goody made it seem as she is and will ever be the only person to get the Big C. Wake up and smell the shit stained blankets Jade. You’re not special. You’re not the Chosen One. Cancer hits millions of people everywhere and those millions of people deal with it in dignity and not by talking crap and getting their sobbing faces into the newspaper day after day. If you wanted our sympathy you could have promoted cancer charities instead of yourself while enduring your disease. We wish death on no one, but we wish you, Jade Goody, a good old fashioned Donkey Punch."

Classy, very classy. What a bunch of assholes. Also on the front page is a form where you can enter your email address and the date and time of Jade's predicted death. Whoever gets closest to Jade's actual date and time of death wins an iPhone. Nice.

Jade's spokesman says, "Naturally, she was shocked and hurt when she found out about this website. But she has also been overwhelmed by the amount of letters, cards, and messages of good will she has received from the public."

Listen, cancer is not a fucking joke. No matter what you think of Jade - and yeah, she's screwed up big time in the past - you don't wish death on anyone. And if there's ever a time to be self-centered, it's when you get a cancer diagnosis, particularly when you have kids depending upon you.

I'm not sure if lawyers can get that site shut down. For one thing, it's in Holland. For another, shitty as it is, I can't imagine the jerks running the site are breaking any laws. But if they have an ounce of decency in them, they'll voluntarily pull the damn thing.

Jade Goody Takes Boys to School

Karl Erikson — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 14:03:00 GMT

Jady Goody took her boys, Bobby and Freddie, to school yesterday. Goody, 27 and a reality TV star, is fighting cervical cancer. I'm sure the boys are happy to see their mum home. I know it's a scary thing for your parents to be sick.

Jade is due back to the hospital this week, actually, for another operation. After her hysterectomy a couple of weeks ago, she'll be going in to have a catheter inserted into her chest to get her ready for chemotherapy. But at least she's home again.

We're all wishing her the best and a speedy recovery.

Reality TV star Jade Goody checked out of the Royal Marsden Hospital after a radical hysterectomy. She's been in the hospital for two weeks and the surgery was to help treat her cervical cancer. Goody was on the U.K. version of "Big Brother" and also starred in the Indian version, where she was told she had cervical cancer after a few days in the Big Brother house. Looks like Goody, mother of two, is finally headed home.

Godspeed, Jade. We're all pulling for you.

Jade Goody's Cancer Has Spread

Sassy Smith — Wed, 17 Sep 2008 11:12:00 GMT

Big Brother star Jade Goody is in the fight of her life - for her life. The 27-year-old, mother of two, recently underwent an eight-hour hysterectomy to remove her cervical cancer. However, the operation didn't yield good news - her cancer has spread and her recovery odds have dropped significantly.

Jade said before her operation, "I will fight the damn thing every step of the way. At the end of the day I am going to bloody beat this thing because I've got two amazing kids to live for. And there's no way I'm gonna let them down."

Doctors discovered that the cancer has spread and is now "Stage Three" - they found cancer cells in a muscle behind her womb. Initially, her odds of recovery were put at 95 per cent, but now, unfortunately, those odds are now just above 50 per cent.

Goody will now be put through an intense, nine-week course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy to hopefully eliminate all cancer cells. Jade is recovering at London's Royal Marsden Hospital's intensive care unit.

We wish her all the best and a full recovery. Those boys need their mom!

Jade Goody Recovering From Full Hysterectomy

Karl Erikson — Sat, 13 Sep 2008 14:30:00 GMT

Big Brother U.K. star Jade Goody was going in for a hysterectomy yesterday to help prevent the spread of her cancer. She found out about the cervical cancer after only a few days being in the Indian version of Big Brother recently.

Jade checked into a cancer center the other day with her mother, and a close friend revealed that Jade was really worried. Understandably so. "Jade is terrified - she's not in a good state at all. She's been putting on a brave face for her sons."

UPDATE: Jade underwent an eight-hour hysterectomy, and now faces 9 weeks of chemotherapy and radiation therapy. Her spokesman, Max Clifford, confirmed late Friday night: "The operation went well."

Tests this week fortunately showed that Jade's cancer had NOT spread. Fantastic news. She's now in intensive care at London’s Royal Marsden Hospital.

Here's to a speedy recovery, Jade. All the best.

Speaking of Big Brother, do any of you watch the American version? Have you been watching this season? Phenomenally good year. I so hope that Dan wins the whole shebang. Guess we'll know in a few days.

Jade Goody Can't Catch a Break

Jade Goody Gets Life Threatening Cancer News While on Big Brother

Jade Goody Could Have Detected Cancer Earlier

Karl Erikson — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 13:34:00 GMT

As we reported a few days ago, Jade Goody - mother of two - has cervical cancer. Jade found out about the cancer while on India's version of "Big Brother." She is now getting medical tests after a tumor was found on her womb. Today she should know if the cancer has spread to any of her other organs, and that will determine whether she needs a full hysterectomy.

Now she says that doctors might have caught the deadly cancer sooner. When she was hospitalized from sudden bleeding weeks before she went onto the reality show, an abnormal smear test came back.

"They'd sent a letter to me ages ago telling me I needed to go in, but I'd been too scared to come in and do anything about it."

We're all pulling for Jade and hope this comes as a lesson to us all. Abnormal results may come out to be nothing, but we need to get these things looked at when the doctor tells us to.

Jade Goody Gets Life Threatening Cancer News While On Big Brother

Jade Goody Gets Life-Threatening Cancer News While on Big Brother

Karl Erikson — Sun, 24 Aug 2008 21:01:00 GMT

Jade Goody, 27-year-old star of Britain's version of Big Brother, found out she has life-threatening cancer while on television.

Goody, the mother of two sons (ages 3 and 5), was invited to be part of the Indian version of Big Brother after her racist exploits last year during the UK version spiked her to instant fame. She was in the Big Brother India house six days ago when producers called her into the Diary Room to break the news.

"One of the producers told me my doctor had been calling the show and I had to ring him urgently. I was totally confused and thought ironically it was either a stunt by the programme or a hoax call," Jade told The Sun.

It wasn't a hoax. The doctor told Goody, "You have cancer, Jade. It's real and it's serious." The cervical cancer is so serious (Stage 2, in fact) her doctors told her that she'd die if she remained in India for the three-month duration of Big Brother.

She flew home immediately and will undergo a hysterectomy next week. Radiation and chemotherapy will follow. That has got to be some of the most awful news you could ever break to children, especially when they're so little.

Here's to hoping that she comes out of this with flying colors. Or is it colours? Those Brits and Canadians with all their extra vowels. And I freely admit to being a huge Big Brother fan, though I've never seen the UK version. What? Don't be hatin'.
