This is a real tear jerker, but let us remember she is a daughter to be proud of, and a mum in a million. I hope that she gets the peace she wants with her family, and peace and serenity in her passing.

God Bless you Jade.

It would be nice if this was the last statement from Jade, however I suspect there will still be more to come.

Whilst I sympathise with the horrible situation she is in and feel sorry for her and her family to be going through this traumatic experience. She is not the only person to whom this is happening in Britain, she is not the only young mother facing certain death in the short term and her family and friends are not the only ones affected by the imminent death of a loved one. She is how ever probably one of the wealthiest people this is currently happening to and as another poster says can well afford the care to die at home. So while everyone is thinking of Jade Goody, I feel more sympathy for all of the unknown people facing this situation without millions in the bank to ensure constant care for the victim and ensuring security for their dependants in the future, the unknown victims not getting hunderds of messages of support every day. I hope Jade's last days as as pain free as possible, however I also wish the same to all of the other people out there fighting cancer without the support of the world's media on their doorstep.

Enough is enough - there are hundreds children, woman and men dying everyday - they don't have the opportunity to make lots of money or be cared - so enough is enough - stop feeling sorry for yourself - Jade has made millions out of this to be able to give financial stability to her boys - what do these other unfortunate people do, just die quietly, how sad is that?
Comment by Millie on March 11 15:06

I think Jade is amazing, she is so brave and strong, to agree that her life should be on show for all the world to see, I just can't think of anything worse. My heart goes out to her children who are going to be left motherless. We shall all be thinking about Jade for many years to come X

Jade has the resources she has by pure hard work and taking the breaks she was given,the publicity is all part of her life.We have all probably lost someone to cancer. Ive lost 3.My heart goes out to her family Mum,boys and Jack.I wouldnt wish it on anyone,rich or poor.I hope she gets to go home for her last few days.

With all the 'Jade dying' in the papers, I think people forget about the other people who died, and did so with dignity- not to make money. My heart goes to those people, not Jade. What next I wonder? Clifford suggesting a film I expect to advertise her life and death.
Comment by chedley on March 11 17:34

I can understand the point that there are people everyday faced with the battles of cancer and are not as privileged as Jade.
What Jade has done, she has seized her opportunities. That is how the public got to know her! To have the opportunity to have the best care and secure a future for her sons, who wouldn't take it? Unfortunately that is how the world has become.
Apart from that, if there is any good to come from this, Jade has now raised awareness amongst young women to go and have a smear test and get checked regularly.
I hope her last days are only happy. I don't think she realises what an inspiration she is.

Love her or hate her, I don't know, but I can't help thinking that what she had done/been doing the past few weeks as demystified dying of this horrible disease.
I only hope it never happens to me.
God bless you Jade, your partner, your kids and their dad x

jade is an insiration to all of us! shes so strong to be able to share with the world the pain and terror she and her family are going through right now.shes been giving the chance to show and tell people about cancer and she has done so. now we all have a little more understanding to what it is like to go through some thing so terrible. men and women all over the worlld know about her dying from cancer so young...this shows the world how no one is imune to cancer! and by her doing this she has saved many people, more people are having tests done than befor. shes a saint. x
Comment by bridie on March 11 20:25

I can appreciate that people have differing opinions and that there are millions of people living this awful nightmare, I am a nurse and have alot of experience of Cancer, chronic illness and death....both personally and professionally. What I dont understand and what makes me livid is the judgemental and cold hearted thoughts and opinions that I have read and heard about Jade's situation and decisions she has made. Okay, granted that she is one of many, but why die quietly? Just incase she offends someone? She has had a very public life after her BB debut, the fact that there is so much press attention surely illustraates that there is genuine caring interest in her, her family and the tragic path which her life is now moving (quickly) down. She is only doing what she has always done.......been herself......NOT what others think she should be and made the most of what life has thrown at her. She wants her sons and loved ones never to forget her, so surely its natural that she will document her life and its final stages in the best way she knows how. Leave her to be, and do whatever she needs to, to allow her some dignity and fulfill her last days. I, for one could possibly handle cancer better than the excruciating painful prospect of leaving my son. Like her, or loathe her, she's a brave, brave girl. God Bless you Jade xxx

I just want to be one of the people to say to jade GOD BLESS Jade and her family, I was told i have cancer in 2007, so am i one of the lucky people.... dont think so...xxxxxxxxxx

You are one in a million Jade and I admire what you have done, both for your boys and cervical cancer awareness. You are a proud mother, with so much love to give your families. It is so easy for people to judge as it's not happening to them. I applaud your strength through the crisis that you have had to face. In years to come, your boys will be SO PROUD of your legacy and the many many lives that you will save through your campaign. Do you know what, each and every person would do what you're doing if they had been in the public eye!! I wish you peace in your final days to share with your boys and Jack xxx
Comment by Janice on March 12 10:33

I always avoided smear tests, I hadnt had one for years but this time when the reminder came through I decided not to ignore it. Jade has done a lot of good in raising awareness, and is a true inspiration in how she has coped with the hand dealt to her. God bless Jade and her friends and family and help them through this difficult time.
Comment by josiejo on March 12 15:11

Jade has only done what any other Mother (who worried about leaving young children behind)would do, MADE PROVISIONS FOR THEM... she's not gainin anything out of all this, she isn't going to be around to benefit and anyone who says they wouldn't grab it with both hands if the opportunity came their way in the same situation is either lyin or doesn't give a damn whether their children are well provided for after theyve gone!! She has thought of others right to the end...

Comment by susan on March 12 21:02

I have no doubt that 'mouthy bird off the box' will save many lives due to the publicity surrounding her illness, what a legacy, respect Jade.
Comment by debbie on March 15 20:53

Wow. I'm 24 and I've been to the gyno once in my life, when I was 18. My results were a little bit off at the time, but they said it was nothing to worry about. If I had insurance (I don't, and I live in the US), I'd probably get tested again...

Despite living on this side of the pond, I've become really captivated with Jade's sad story. Shame on the people who lambast her for her ignorance and lack of education--why wouldn't she be, when she had to spend her entire childhood caring for her one-armed crack-addict mother instead of properly going to school? Despite being born into a life of utter deprivation, she managed to grab onto opportunity with both hands when it hit her, working very hard to achieve what she has. Despite all the hard knocks that life's thrown at her, to her very last she's working to provide the life, opportunities, and privileges for her boys that she never got.
