Jade: There's 40% chance I'll survive
Monday 12 January 2009
Jade Goody has revealed she only has a 40% chance of survival as she vows to fight her cervical cancer.
Her revelation comes as she described the moment her hair started falling out following chemotherapy.
The former Big Brother star told The Daily Mirror: "I have down times when I cry and cry. I've only got a 40% chance of living. But I won't let go.
"I screamed until my mum came running. When she saw the hair on the floor, she just cuddled me and rubbed my head like when I was a baby.”
The mum-of-two, 27, says doctors removed a tumour the size of a rugby ball as they also took out her ovaries and womb.
But Jade is determined to fight on, adding: “Throughout my life I have coped with some bad stuff but I have always turned out stronger than the thing trying to beat me.
“And with cancer it will be the same. I will not let it beat me.”
Our thoughts are with you Jade.
