I don't think she has long. She has cervical cancer which was stage four by the time they discovered it; they did a full hysterectomy but found that it had spread to other tissues. Just last week they found a mass in her bowel which caused an obstruction so she had to have emergency surgery. I think it went ok but still, it's a bad sign. There's a lot of nasty stuff on the boards about her, because she has a history of hypochondria and milking the media, but I'm pretty certain this is all real. It's terribly sad in someone so young, and proves you have to have those check-ups.

Oh gosh, Kitt, I feel so sad for her and her family I can't believe I feel this way after Jade's actions in the past. eta: she is still alive, and there may be a chance, so I'll pray for her.

Apparently she and Jack are engaged now. When she was told on Friday she had months to live, Jack proposed to her and they will get married. I suspect she is going to have Jack raise the two boys. The cancer has spread to her bowels and her groin. I have to admit I too thought it was a hoax when she first announced she had cancer. Thought it was a ploy for sympathy after the whole Shilpa fiasco. her kids are so young, it is sad. Hopefully, her crazy mother wont get the kids.

She's almost like the boy who cried wolf isn't she? I never thought it was a hoax, but some of the things she said just didn't make sense, and with her background it would be easy to believe it wasn't real. Jack seems quite responsible really, despite the background. And he's very loyal to Jade. Hopefully those boys will be in good hands.

Jack always seemed decent, even on the big brother show. You just couldnt figure out what he was doing with her, he had a sweetness about him and clearly he was crazy about her, even putting up with her verbal attacks.

I would more than hope the boys father Jeff Brazier would step up and take the boys. They are his sons not Jack's, and as he is still alive and I could be wrong but still active in the boys life if the worst should happen. As for Jack being responsible, he is a lads lad. He has cheated on Jade, got himself into so many scrapes they are having troubles planning the wedding due to the 7 pm curfew his parole has. I hope Jade gets through this and is able to see her boys grow up.

I was reading about her yesterday and it does seem like the boys' father will take them if the worst happens - I didn't realise they weren't Jack's.

According to Davina's twitter the wedding is this weekend, and they have lifted Jack's bail restriction of having to be back to his mother's by 7 so he can spend time with Jade

I don't know if many of you recognise Wendy Richard; she was often on BBLB as she was a huge Big Brother fan. She died today, aged 65, of cancer. For any PBS viewers, she was Miss Brahms in Are You Being Served and Pauline Fowler in Eastenders. Very sad news. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7912668.stm

Yeah, I remember when my mother and I would watch Are You Being Served? (and the series' sequel) every Saturday night when it came on here. I read about it today and it's incredibly sad news, but at least she left behind a great career for people to enjoy!

It really scares me that someone as strong and young as Jade can't be saved from cancer. I remember when I was in my teens in the 80s. I thought in 20 years by the time I was 40, cancer would be cured. Nope, it's not.

Yes, it's getting to me too. I'm fortunate enough never to have someone close to me struck by the disease, and as Jade's case has played out so much in the media, it's really been quite a scary eye opener. It just seems like there's a point when there's really no return, however healthy people seemed only months before. Wendy Richard was the same, she made an announcement that her breast cancer had become terminal at the end of last year, and then so quickly she went from that forceful woman to the end. It's so sad that with everything we can do in this day and age, such things still beat us.

Jayde was released from the hospital today to go home to die. Jack went with her and reports are that the cancer is in her brain now and she is going blind. Very sad.

I remember thinking all that when Linda McCartney got cancer. I thought that if anyone could find someone in this wide world who could help keep his wife alive, it would be Paul. That's when I began to truly understand that we musn't take each precious day...moment...for granted.

Kitt, I am so glad that I checked in to this forum. I was checking in to get more info on Jane Goody. I was sorry to read of Wendy's passing. I loved her character on Are You Being Served and its sequel.
