Brave Jade plans funeral and will

Cancer-stricken BB star prepares for the worst

DISTRAUGHT Jade Goody is planning her funeral and preparing her will as she bravely comes to terms with her cancer diagnosis.

The Big Brother star, 27, has just a 50-50 chance of survival after hearing the disease has spread to her stomach lining.

She said: "I'd want to have an open funeral and let everyone who wanted to come along.

"I want people to cry over me! And I don't want people to have a booze up."

Mum-of-two Jade has also been drawing up her will but is too upset to decide who should take care of her children.

"The only person good enough for my kids is me," she said in a magazine interview.

She also told of the horror at learning she has cancer, saying she sobbed when the news was broken.

Jade, who has cut of her hair in preparation for a year's gruelling chemotherapy treatment, said her doctor was not optimistic.

"He warned me that my chances of survival aren't good," she said.

Sweet and Gorgeous Girl. I concur with every comment above.... You've always shown strength. Your battle at this time is whether you should or shouldn't ask Jesus for his help and trust that God has a plan for you and your family. Trust Darling. It will surely be well. My spirit cries out for you to Trust.

Keep fighting kiddo !!!
I remember the day you entered the BB house and since we've all watched you grow up through the media -mistakes and all.
I'm not one of your greatest fans but I have to say for someone so young - what an inspiration !! I am praying for you and all the other women who share your plight. I can't imagine me being so brave.
Big hug and lots of love to you. Live everyday to the full and make memories with your little ones. Heaven can wait. xx

Hi Jade,
I am writing this with tears runniing down my face. You are an inspiration and a beautiful, young woman. You are down to earth and above all sincere.
Despite all your knock backs you remain strong and have raised two beautiful boys. They will miss you as much as you will miss them but they will carry on your legacy.
I hope that you do not suffer and that your Wedding is all that you want it to be and then much, much more...........I will pray for you and hope that Heaven is the beautiful place that you want it to be when your time comes so that you can still watch your family/friends.
God bless you Jade
Your fans will remain loyal forever and I can say hand-on-heart that I have not felt like this since Diana died.
Have a fantastic day on Sunday, you have such support from the likes of myself who can do nothing other than to tell you we love you.
Thank you for touching my life xxxxxxxx

By GERALDINE DONNELLY. Posted Februar 16 2009 at 2:47 PM.

Jade,

We are all feeling your pain, girl. The only thing now which can help is for you to turn to God. You don't need fancy words or candles or anything else. Just close and eyes and pour out your heart to him. He will help you, I can promise you that,

God bless

By Helen. Posted Februar 16 2009 at 2:12 PM.

Jade, I am the same age as you and my heart goes out to you. I want you to know deep in your heart that Jesus is your answer. I pray for a miracle but more than that, He has a plan and purpose for your boys and cares for their future even more than you do as impossible as that may seem. God turned my life around after years of alcohol abuse, depression, suicide attempts and a never ending list of broken relationships and heartache. I hope and pray for you that you turn everything over to Him in this time as he can do the impossible. Bless you hun your so brave and i will continue to pray for you and also your boys xxx

By heather. Posted Februar 16 2009 at 2:11 PM.

By joyce. Posted Februar 15 2009 at 12:05 PM.

Your sad story has touched our hearts. There are so many in your situation. Please reach for the Lord Jesus. He will answer. 'Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding' Place your trust in Him, let Him into your heart.........and He has promised a home in heaven for all who accept Him. No more pain, no more fear, no more tears, no more goodbyes there.
God bless you, Jade x

Jade you are one in a million! Of all the things that people go through in life you are one person who does not deserve this happening to you, i wish i was your close friend because everytime i see you in the papers i want to give you the biggest cuddle and make you all better. It breaks my heart to think you feel your two boys will forget their mummy but since the day you walk into the bb house you,ve had an impact on every-one where ever you go so you should always hold on to the fact your boys will never forget you because im sure the impact you have had on them will last the rest of their lives. Your a strong and brave girl and it WILL come good in the end. xxxxx joss
