For me I really do not care about the why's or the wherefores.
I started this thread to, well to offer some kind of sympathy. Obviously sympathy for a woman, a young woman at that with young kids, does not bode well with some.
Shame on you I say. I am a hard nosed git at the best of times but....even I can offer this. My God what is wrong with some people here? The woman is very ill, possibly going to die. If people cannot offer sympathy for that, then I really dispell of the human race.

Jade Goody
Quote by Lucyandmike7
Your post was typed with compassion and sincerity from one human being about another.
I commend you.
Yes it was.
People know only too well what I can be like. People on here know my views, and I really do not care what others think about me but....I am just amazed at peoples cynisism, over a very ill woman.
At times like this I really could not care what she has done about anything in her past, or why she has done them.
Yes we all know there are others out there in the same situation but.....they are not in the public eye. She is and she has used that to her advantage, just like the press have used her for theirs.
So what if she ignored her previous scans. It is she that will suffer for that. and her two sons.
I have had this quoted at ME many times in the past, and I will now use it at others, too quick with their judgements.... " do not critisise until you have walked a mile in her shoes ". In this situation I have to agree.

To be fair Steve the girl is dying and in a very unpleasant manner. OK others have and will and are going through stuff similar. What she is doing I think is the only thing she can do which is to make sure her legacy to her children and partner is the best it can be. What else can she do? OK that maybe financial and with the help of a publicist but so?
Rock on lady with cancer. You do what you have to to make every moment of your life feel in whatever way better.

I dont deny that she is suffering and I would not wish it on my worst enemy but if it were me I would rather be dignified and suffer in private....

I am in the strange position of agreeing with both sides here....
If the end result of all this is that it turns into a rallying call for those with abnormal test results to get them to follow them up ASAP then it is worth it...
If the end result of all this is that people have a serious discussion/conversation about lowering the age for pap smear tests, then it will have been worth it.....
If the end result of all this is it helps just one person out there in the same position of denial the wake up call or the kick up the backside they need to get treatment and it saves just one life..... then I don't care what publicity she gets, it will have been worth it.....
Jane Tomlinson died of cancer.
She was very much in the public eye, in our area nearly daily.
The young man whos name escapes me, who started a blog on the net about his fight with cancer on the internet.
He was very much in the public eye.
Jade was already in the publics eye, by various TV programes, and magazines.
What is the difference between her and the other people?
Is it because she is percieved to be not a good person by the media, and a money maker?
We wish all well, who are in a fight for life, personally.

If I was suffering the same as Jade, and the media were willing to pay me shedloads of cash to follow me round, then to be honest, I'd take the money, let them report and I would care less about what people thought about me for doing it.
However, lets face it Jade is naive, and the media see her plight as an easy way to make more money. The moneymen don't give a flying toss about Jade's dignity, she's easily led.
I really hope that they can prolong her life, however it means that the greedy moneymen are going to contine to control her then I am really saddened.
I think until faced with a situation like this who are we really to know what we would do as decisions made at the time when all rational thought flies out of the window. Rationally I suppose we could all think what we might do, how we would handle ourselves faced with the same dilemmas, but then mixed that with thousands of other things going on in your head, can we all say we would make the right choice.
I for one could not say I would not make mistakes, but then I wouldn’t have to worry as they would go to my grave with me.
I have been faced with making rash decisions under the stain of mourning when all rational thinking was gone, do I regret it no.
At the time it was right for me for the sake of my daughter who had gone.
When we find out death is near, we morn immediately we start planning the best way for ourselves to deal with, how one person deals with it might be totally different from another, who are we to decide what is right for one.

Well what a hero.
What the heck do you think she is doing this for? For the money for her kids, thats why.
The press have played her big time, and she is now doing the same to them. She has to keep herself in the " spotlight " as that way it generates more money.
From what I know about you, I am suprised in some of your comments....really suprised.

AFAIK you know very little about me aside from what you summise from my forum ramblings so I fail to see how being suprised is a suprise ....

we have been close to cancer all to often with family and friends this last year alone four people i can think of off the top of my head... one survived ...we wish jade goody and everyone else all the luck we can offer and our deepest sympathies to anyone that has been or is being affected by this terrible condition...in what ever way they choose to deal with it..
I don’t think we should be here to judge anyone that faced with the same set of circumstances really don’t know how we would react.
We don’t have the media to our advantage, I think the media stinks to be honest they would swoop to such low levels as to make money for their own gain, might be why I saw years ago their tactless approach in the way most report on human suffering.
I am not a selfish person but would I use the media if I had the opportunity like Jade has?
Money has never been the driving factor in my life, I don’t put as much importance on it as other things that are more important, but yes I would use them, would I feel ashamed not one bit.
How do we know Jade isn’t donating some money to charity?
How do we really know anything to be fact?
I don’t read as I have said before newspapers I don’t want to be fed one side of a story, or bits they care to print.
I want to think if put in the same position what I would do and feel with a clear blank mind without some reporter feeding it with what I see, could be a load of rubbish.
Maybe I am just cynical.
