It has been confirmed that the cervical cancer that has taken hold of Jade Goody has advanced further, spreading to her liver, bowel and groin.

Although she is trying to remain positive, doctors have withdrawn there previous expectations of a 40% chance she will survive the condition.

Focus on keeping her alive as long as possible has replaced the original goal of curing the cancer and as expected Jade is in pieces over the news:-

“I am devastated. I am frightened and I am angry. I don’t want to die because I have so much to live for.

“The whole thing is absolutely terrifying. To try and remain positive, I am hoping a new type of treatment will suppress and control the cancer, which is very aggressive. I am in a nightmare.”

The big brother veteran has said that she will be trying a different combination of drugs to halt the cancers progress.

A family friend said:-

“She can’t seem to win this fight - the cancer is too advanced and the doctors don’t hold out much hope.”

Although i can’t say i am a keen fan of Jade Goody for various reasons but my heart goes out to her through this traumatic experience.

Best of Luck to her and i hope she pulls through.
