Jade Goody’s Cancer Has Spread

Big Brother star Jade Goody is in the fight of her life – for her life.  The 27-year-old, mother of two, recently underwent an eight-hour hysterectomy to remove her cervical cancer.  However, the operation didn't yield good news — her cancer has spread and her recovery odds have dropped significantly.

Jade said before her operation, "I will fight the damn thing every step of the way.  At the end of the day I am going to bloody beat this thing because I've got two amazing kids to live for.  And there's no way I'm gonna let them down."

Doctors discovered that the cancer has spread and is now "Stage Three" — they found cancer cells in a muscle behind her womb.  Initially, her odds of recovery were put at 95 per cent, but now, unfortunately, those odds are now just above 50 per cent.

Goody will now be put through an intense, nine-week course of radiotherapy and chemotherapy to hopefully eliminate all cancer cells.  Jade is recovering at London's Royal Marsden Hospital's intensive care unit.

We wish her all the best and a full recovery.  Those boys need their mom!
