Docs missed killer tumour four years ago

jade we wish you all the luck in the world still hoping you will come through this and rest asured my darling your two little boys will never forget you and you will always be with them

By julie.. Posted March 8 2009 at 12:57 PM.

Jade, I know you are going through a really difficult time, but having married your boyfriend Jack I wish you both all the love in the world.
I think you are doing the right thing by making your programme, Jade. After you have gone this will be a legacy of your love for your two boys, for Jack, your Mother and for all your friends. You have done more to raise awareness about cancer screening than any other publicity put out by the NHS.
I wish something could be done to change the outcome of your illness but I know you will always be remembered with love and affection by the public. God Bless.

By Pam, Birmingham.. Posted February 23 2009 at 9:44 AM.

Jade, I watch your programme with my daughter and son and we all remarked on what a wonderfully down to earth loving person you are. We are all so sorry that you are ill. We grew to admire you greatly and you have achieved so much so young. You are in our prayers and we send you all our love. You have reminded us all of the amazing gift life is and how to truly cherish life and to make the best of every moment. We are wishing on a star for a miracle for you

Dear Jade,

I was devastated to hear of your illness. Your whole life has been a struggle, through no fault of your own. yet you rose above it all. and made a lovely life for your boys. I have always followed your life since BB and admired your rise to fame. and I know at times it must have been hard.
You come across as being so strong and capable yet so caring and understanding. But right now you are probably just a frightened little girl who needs someone else to be stronger than you are, and I hope Jack can be that strength for you. Congrats for your wedding love and may I say you look stunning without hair and you will make a beautiful bride. You have a brilliant day Jade.
Just one piece of advice sweetheart....stop worrying about tomorrow next week or next month because it stops you enjoying the to-days.
Take Care. Thinking of you

Dear Jade and Family
How strange that over your lifetime we have crossed paths but never met
you went to the same school as my grandchildren
we have the same illness same operation same cancer and are under the same consultant
last week i sat in the little chapel in Marsden and prayed for you and your family as i had done for my own six years ago
I lit a candle for you and your boys
and feel life can be unfair that you got this news at such a young age
please go and pray Jade. Miracles do happen i have fought cancer three times.
And i never gave up even on my darkest days
i send you such positive love
your will to live will carry you through.
when your tired rest and let god take the strain
god bless xx

Dear Jade, What a woman you are. Loving, Brave and very courageous. You are an inspiration to all women. I am devastated at the news of your illness and it is very wrong that doctors did not diagnose you sooner. Please do not worry about your lovely boys, you have the the world looking out for them and they could never forget a wonderful mother like you. Take care Jade and God Bless you, Jack and your lovely boys.

By leanne .. Posted February 17 2009 at 12:34 AM.

Jade, so long I have watched and enjoyed seeing you mature and become a loving mother. Words can't express how I feel now you have lost your battle with the cancer, go out and have the strength to make as much money as you can for your boys, I would do the same. Your boys will remember you and grow up knowing they had a loving mum. God will always be with you.

I havent slept since and cannot stop crying or worrying as like yourself i am a single parent. You have handled this with such grace and maturity and i wanted to say keep fighting and i am praying for you. Please dont ever think for one minute you will be forgotton by your boys if anything happened to you. Its very clear to the world how much you love and care for them and have given them the best start in life, But i understand your worrys and I am praying for you.

By jan page.. Posted February 16 2009 at 11:00 PM.

Dear Jade, It breaks my heart to read what you are going through, no one should ever have to cope with such trauma. You are braver than I could ever be. Your boys are lucky to have you as their Mum, you have touched so many people, they will read all about you, know you as well as possible in this situation and they will never forget you. And credit to you for getting out there and publicising your illness to take care of your boys, it must be so unbelievably hard when you feel so shattered. Giving them an education is the best thing you can do for them, they will look back in years to come, realise what you did, feel your love and appreciate what you did forever. I wish there was something I could do to help. I will buy all the magazines you are in so you get as much money as possible. I am praying for a miracle for you, much love sam xxxxx

By sam.. Posted February 16 2009 at 10:24 PM.

Dear Jade,
Your illness is indeed a mighty load to bear, and I feel so angry at the medical professionals who missed the "signs" four years ago. A similar thing happened to a friend of mine some years back and it filled me with the same rage to hear this also happened to you.
Jade - your sons WILL NOT FORGET YOU, as young as they are - they won't. What they WILL remember is all love you've so obviously poured into them. I believe God has a plan for everyone, and some of those plans may seem cruel (my own life is not a bed of roses by the way) but everything in life, good & bad, is for a reason.

Jade words alone are not enough to express the luck I wish for you.
Stay strong and stay YOU.
God Bless You Jade.
Much Love. xxxxxx

By Lisa N.. Posted February 16 2009 at 7:03 PM.

Ever since you were told that you had cancer, you have been on my prayer list every single night. Prayer is a wonderful thing, and it seems that God has seen fit not to cure you. Why? No-one can ever know why these things happen, but I truly believe that you have been given the chance to turn to God in prayer for yourself. Having had breast cancer myself three years ago, I feel I have been cured.

Please God, be with Jade, Jack , Freddy and Bobby, Her mother and all friends, to help her last few weeks, to go as smoothly as possible, and when the end does come, please take away all her pain and anxiety, so that she goes in peace. May God Bless you my dear Jade. How can we forget such a lovely girl who gave us so much pleasure in the past.

By Janet.. Posted February 15 2009 at 1:17 PM.

I am so deeply sorry to hear you have lost your brave fight Jade. You have been a wonderful mummy to your 2 boy's and they will make you proud. My heart and love goes out to you and your family.......god bless you Jade !!

By martine.. Posted February 9 2009 at 9:59 PM.

SUE! Hospitals and doctors need to be afraid not to do diagnostic ultrasound tests, followed by CT if necessary, as well as blood tests, in order to give patients the best chance for a proper diagnosis!

By Paula.. Posted February 9 2009 at 3:04 PM.

Jade, i have loved you ever since i first saw you on bb and have followed you since...i am so very sorry for what you are having to go thought....but if anyone can beat this its you.....your are a very strong person..you have your boys and you have lots of love

By pam.. Posted February 8 2009 at 4:58 PM.

My husband has cancer. This is a horrible disease which affects so many. You were never a 'favourite' of mine, but I now have so much admiration for you I really hope and pray that you achieve your dream. Sending you and your boys lots of love x x x

By tina.. Posted February 8 2009 at 11:41 AM.

Dear Jade , i have found these comments very moving, some have made me cry. This is a very sad time for you and your boys. Good luck, we are all behind you.

By Clair.. Posted February 8 2009 at 3:44 AM.

I have never been a fan of yours, sorry, but being honest. Your video really moved me, and having read the article it makes my blood boil with rage because so many doctors are so arrogant and think they are above being questioned. I used to work for a doctor who once told me ''doctors do not like being told what to do, or questioned'' What an arrogant remark.

Perhaps you should sue the doctors who failed to diagnose your tumour, they should be held responsible. You have your two sons to think of and they will need the money when you are gone.

To hear your children are not being prepared for their loss is sad, surely someone can help you and your boys.

What can I say, other than I wish you well.

By Jenny.. Posted February 8 2009 at 1:02 AM.

hi,

your whole story has really moved me. i really really wish you the best with everything. i had a cervical cancer scare 2 years ago but i was one of the lucky ones, got early treatment and it has all (so far) been fine. but that was traumatic enough and i just so so so admire you for your bravery and for speaking out about this awful disease. a friend of mine (age 21) was also diagnosed with stage 2 last year...

i am also training to be a dr and really hope i can be one of those who doesn't happen to miss things and can listen to people and support them whatever they're going through...

seriously jade, my fingers (and everything else, hehe!) are crossed for you. enjoy every day you can and don't worry, even if things don't work out the way i and everyone else is hoping, your boys will know you did everything for them and that you're a fantastic lady (and mummy).

all my love xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

By kate.. Posted February 7 2009 at 8:49 PM.

I cant get over how all those medics missed Jade's tumour for so long. This is a very worrying state of affairs for everyone as it is at our most vunerable that we place trust in medical professionals.

By Jo, Essex.. Posted January 26 2009 at 4:28 PM.

Firstly i would just like to say i am a great fan of Jade and think she is an inspiration to all single working mothers all over the world.

Secondly i would like to make a comment to Claire's message - dated 19th Jan 09.

Claire if you where a single mother wirh two young children a mortgage, private schools fees (for the school the boys are already happy in) and probably debts still outstanding household bills, woulld you still work to pay the bills, pay the school fees, buy the shopping, pay day to day costs? of course you would. And unfortunetly for Jade the only line of worK she can get paid for is "reality TV / Magazines" because thats what she started her Celebrity career from. Even if she did go back to work as a Dental Nurse she would not be able to work in a cross infection prone enviroment or be able to hold down a 9-5 job due to chemo etc.
I am quite sure jade sponsors many charities and wants so show people how difficult battling cancer is.

Lastly -

JADE IF YOU EVER GET TIME TO READ THIS I AM KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED FOR YOU AND YOUR SONS AND PRAY THAT YOU COME OUT OF THIS A STRONGER PERSON.X TAKE CARE

By carmen.. Posted January 25 2009 at 2:43 PM.

Good luck, Jade. Don't give up. I know so many people who've been in your position and have come through.

By colin hicks.. Posted January 19 2009 at 4:14 PM.

I KNOW EXACTLY HOW YOU FEEL. I'm 38; and it was only last year that I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer and told the maximum survival rate was 35%. I too was misdiagnosed. I went through chemo and have just been told I am in remission. I shaved my head like you have done to take some control. I would like to query however why you are carrying out the documentary? Is it to raise awareness, help people who are fightining this disease or to raise money for the Marsden who have helped you???. However knowing the position you are in I wish you well for the future and "Never Give Up Fighting".

By Claire.. Posted January 19 2009 at 2:30 PM.

Dear Jade. You will be FINE. You are one of the most honest person on TV I have ever seen. You will be fine and GOD has no choice but help you. Keep faith in God.. Will tell you my story laters... GOD BLESS.. Kheda..

By Kheda.. Posted January 19 2009 at 2:30 PM.

Jade , my mum died when I was 5 and a half. I think about her every day . I remember her cuddles and warmth and love her more than any one in the world. I know she is alway with me. I have my own son now and share the same love with him. If you and your boys are parted they will always remember you and the special things you do for them. I promise.

One can not even begin to imagine how you really feel jade through this whole very tragic situation nor can we put into words anything that will make you feel better. One thing I can say is that you truely are amazing dealing with this huge burden and you really are (or should be) an inspiration to us all. you keep fighting girl if not for you but for those 2 gorgeous boys. I know its hard, but keep smiling because you really are beautifull and dont ever let any low life tell you any different.

I live in the States and follow your story and I wish you all the luch and the best and I know you will be just fine. Best wishes!!!

By Rita.. Posted January 18 2009 at 9:37 PM.

Noone deserves to have cancer and my heart and soul goes out to Jade and her son's at this difficult time. Jade is the same age as me and i cannot begin to imagine what she is going through. I hope she beats this cancer i really do - because them boys do not deserve to lose their mother.
Get well soon Jade and i think you look really attractive with your bald head x

Don't give up the fight Jade, When you are down, just take a look at those lovely two boys and their little faces should make you smiile at least. Take Care and God Bless you.
