Cancer has spread, I will die in my 30s: Goody

British reality TV star Jade Goody, who had to pull out of the Indian version of the Big Brother show after being diagnosed with cervical cancer, has said her disease has spread and she might die ‘in her 30s'.

Twenty seven-year old Goody, a mother of two, said: "I'm terrified my cancer has spread and I'll die in my 30s."

Goody, who is preparing for a hysterectomy next week, was fully briefed on her condition by doctors on Wednesday.

"It was even worse than I was expecting," Jade was quoted in the Daily Mirror as telling a close friend.

"They told me about the worst case scenario -- where I might not even survive 10 years. I'm all over the place. I can't stop crying."

Goody's publicist Max Clifford confirmed the report, saying: "She's very frightened and upset."

Before starting chemotherapy and radiotherapy, Goody will have an exploratory operation to find out if the cancer has moved to any other parts of her body or her blood.

Jade's form of cervical cancer has a 90 per cent survival rate if it has not spread.

Goody was at the centre of allegations of racist bullying against Bollywood actress Shilpa Shetty during the British reality show Big Brother last year.

She was diagnosed with cancer while appearing in the Bigg Boss-II show in an Indian television channel recently.

take each day as it comes over the next few months by michelle stepney on 2008-09-06 02:22:15.325625+05:30 Jade, Please try and take a step back from the limelight and focus on you getting better, because you wlll. But most of all for your sanity. People will say good and bad, but none will ever know the pain, you are feeling right now, unless they have experienced cancer. I was diagnosed with cervical cancer at 5 months pregnant with twins, and I am here today 20months on, with the twins, my son Jack and husband. I had chemo when I was pregnant and loss my hair, but I hung in there, and thats all you can do, and believe in yourself. Lots of Love and get well wishes, Michelle xxx

Jade Goody report by Alexandra Phasaria on 2008-09-05 10:58:19.445212+05:30 Jade Goody has not said that her cancer has spread. She said she feared her cancer has spread. Yet two Indian entertainment news agencies choose to copy paste yesterday's news and report falsely on them. This is absolutely unprofessional! Research before you publish and don't just write whatever you think will sell!

Dont believe all you here in the papers! She prob isn't selling all these comments it's prob other sick people making money out of her at an awful time. It must be so awful for her! All the more coz she's got her boys and they need their mum! That must be the hardest of all for her!Jade you've def got my support. I've got my fingers crossed xxxx
