Saving Jade Goody - Not Private Ryan.


As you have heard the world famous celebrity Jade Goody has been confirmed as having terminal cancer as was stated on the news.She is only 27 years old.

She was on Big Brother and many tv shows and was and is a very popular celebrity
adored by the masses.

I was devastated to hear she is dying.She has 2 children.She is only 27 years old.

Last night I cried and cried as I saw how she had been ravaged by cancer and chemo therapy which did not work, as usual.

I could not sleep all last night.

Her long beautiful hair is all gone and she is bald due to the terrible toxic poisons the doctors fed her with their fake promises.

I am very upset and I implore you, all you people who have knowledge of alternative cancer therapies to urgently contact her and save her please.

She can be contacted directly or through her agent Max Clifford.She must be advised
that there is hope and a possibility of living beyond the 27 years she has lived.

I urge you alternative cancer remedy experts to hurry as she has only a few months left to live.

This is a chance for you to shine and for you to save somebody famous who could then help you.

Last but not least please paray for her tonight in your parayers.

Please hurry.Time is of the essence.

Is this really the subject you should be addressing with the moronic views you hold?

And why would Ms Goody be any more deserving than the thousands of other cancer patients worldwide?

Cervical cancer can be treated using surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, or a combination of these.
The form of treatment that is used will depend on the stage of the cancer and whether it has spread at the time of diagnosis.

Early-stage cancer that is confined to the cervix, offers an excellent outlook, with a success rate of over 85%.
However, if the cancer has spread to the vagina, surrounding tissues and pelvic area, or elsewhere, the outlook is less positive.

Who the heck is Jade Goody? []
Honestly, I've never heard of her!

You're not alone. I had never heard of her until that B****Y Big Brother crap. So far as I can make out, she is a celebrity nobody, with a big foul mouth.

I'm sorry she has terminal cancer, but then I would feel the same for anyone in her position.

I have no wish to know the ins' & outs' of the remainder of her life. Doubtless the media will ensure that I can't turn on the TV or radio or open a newspaper without being subjected to a barage of information on her demise.

What about Mrs Smith of Anytown, who faces the same sad situation, will no reporter bother with her story?

[Chemistry4me]

Jeez, so that's what all the fuss is about. [][]

[dentstudent]

I with you all above - It's a real shame when anyone gets cancer, nobody deserves it. But what's so special about her? I was actually going to include this as a part of the media hype thread.

She is not a celebrity in my view, even less any sort of bastian for cancer. She "deserves" no more than anyone else in her situation would receive, which, it has to be said, is probably the best cancer care there is anywhere in the world.

[dentstudent]

And now we've got ads of her at the bottom of the page....******

[Chemistry4me]

What is ******?
I can't think of a bad word that fits []

It was merely to show general distaste.

If there was one in the world, why would they be hanging around here for?
They'll be lighting their cigars with one hundred dollar bills somewhere in the Carribean.

There's one aspect to this that worries me, and that's Max Clifford.  He's so good at his job that it warps the world around his clients, and blurs the line between reality and PR spin.  There was an excellent Louis Theroux doc about him some time ago.

This is not about Kylie Minogue but since you insist on dragging her into it , I regret to inform you that in my estimation she unfortunately only has 3 years left before it comes back even more vigrously.

The death of 1 said Winston is a tragedy.The death of a million is a statistic.

She is more deserving as we know her.We have seen her on Big Brother, We have heard her talk, laugh, joke.We have seen her playing pranks and talking to other people.She has spoken directly to us looking at the camera.She is a source of inspiration how a small town girl can make it big.


We know her.She has been a part of our lives.

She is a human being.She deserves to live and is a mother to two small children.

I remember using up all my annual leave at work so I could watch her all day.After my annual leave was finished,I phoned in pretending to be ill so I could further partake of her.

I am very upset at the jibes being made against her by ignorant people.

We should all be helping her.
She has had a terrible life.Her father left her.Her mother had all sorts of difficulties.

Once again I urge all decent people to help her.

I would think that anyone knowing you, would believe you are ill.

The death of 1 said Winston is a tragedy. The death of a million is a statistic.

..but also a million individual tragedies.

She is more deserving as we know her.

 I don’t. I’ve no idea who she is beyond yet another so-called celebrity.

We have seen her on Big Brother, We have heard her talk, laugh, joke. We have seen her playing pranks and talking to other people. She has spoken directly to us looking at the camera. She is a source of inspiration how a small town girl can make it big.

I haven’t. The only time have did ever see her on TV she came across as an idiot who had no more intelligence than the arse end of a piece of road kill, and she wasn’t quite a pretty either.

Also, this does not mean that you know her any more than you know any other person who appears regularly on TV. You are merely deluding yourself because you have made her into some sort of personal heroin.

We know her. She has been a part of our lives.

No she hasn’t.

She is a human being. She deserves to live and is a mother to two small children.

Not many people “deserve” to die. The fact that she is a mother of two small children is irrelevant. 

I remember using up all my annual leave at work so I could watch her all day. After my annual leave was finished, I phoned in pretending to be ill so I could further partake of her.

You poor, sad, lonely individual. All you achieved here is to cause other people annoyance through your own lack of conscience.

I am very upset at the jibes being made against her by ignorant people.

Which ignorant people? All those who don’t agree with you?

We should all be helping her.

No we shouldn’t. It is down to her own family and her future husband to help her. This has nothing to do with you.

She has had a terrible life. Her father left her. Her mother had all sorts of difficulties.

And? There is nothing unique to her about this either. It’s called life. Though yours seems to be passing you by……


I would just like to reiterate that I think that it is a terrible thing to have cancer – we all know people who have had it, some have recovered fully from it, and others who haven’t. It is also perhaps worse when it happens to someone as young as 27. But the fact that a person has what some consider to be an elevated status, provides absolutely no reason why any greater efforts should be made. Every day, thousands of people are treated for cancer, and are treated to the very highest levels of medical care that are currently possible. Everyone is entitled to this. Nobodysavedme, you should be glad that this is the case – if (and I hope that this isn’t ever the case) you one day find that you have cancer, by your own opinion, those who “succeed” should be offered greater care. How will they treat someone who spent their entire holiday and sick leave watching Big Brother?

This is not about Kylie Minogue but since you insist on dragging her into it , I regret to inform you that in my estimation she unfortunately only has 3 years left before it comes back even more vigrously.

Even if your pessimistic prognosis is true, her chemotherapy would have given her extra years of life which she would not have had otherwise, (well worth a few months of hair loss).

[Bored chemist]

I read in this morning's paper, always a source of reliable information ;-) that since Jade's story was publicised, the take up rate for cervical cancer screening has risen considerably.
So far as I can judge (and I have't made much of a study) this is the most useful thing she has ever done. I hope that she can derive some comfort from it in her last months.


Incidentally I think the BB show is dross but I don't particulary care that other people are happy to watch it and, indirectly, pay for it.

From her start in Big Brother, I really liked her, and felt really, really bad when she got picked on in the house. I don't think she meant to come across as racist but showing as having normal conversation as we all do everyday. She did go to the India Big Brother house where she was adored.

I am heartbroken that she is going to leave us and her two sons. The fact that she is allowing people to share in her tragedy shows what a remarkable person that she has become. She is not only thinking of her sons future, but of others going through what she is going through.

She deserves to be recognized for her efforts. She is brave, albeit scared, as I think she fears leaving her boys, more than death. She has a shining personality, and the world is going to be a little bit sad with her gone. She has made an impact without even trying.

My thoughts and prayers are with her and her family.

Many nasty remarks have been made here by jealous people who have nothing positive to contribute but hate and are simply driven by envy of her money and fame.

You should be ashamed.
