...I cant help but feel so sorry for her. After being diagnosed with cervical cancer back in August, she has spent the last few months under going treatment, only today to find out that it has spread into other organs and that one of the only things they can do now is try prolong her life.
She is only 27. Thats one year older than me.
The big C really is one of the most terrifying things out there for me and the thought of someone only a year older than me with two kids being told there is not much they can do for her is upsetting regardless of what type of person she is.
I only hope the time she does have left with her boys are happy ones.
The big C really stinks.

    Oh my God. That is terrible at 27 or any age for that matter. I have never heard of Jade Goody. Yes the big C stinks. I try to take care of my health, but cancer is a wild card. I certainly hope I have lots more years to go but one never knows.

    It is one of my big fears too, so I just hope for the best. Hopefully the time remaining will be as good as possible.
