Title: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: DraconianOne on August 19, 2008, 02:09:53 PM This story (http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7569616.stm) makes me realise now that no matter what I do in life, I am going to burn for eternity in my own special level of hell.

Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: schild on August 19, 2008, 02:46:39 PM I wonder how many other unimportant people were diagnosed with Cancer today. Obviously it doesn't suck to be her, out of all those cancer diagnosed folks, she got press for it.
Meh. Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: DraconianOne on August 19, 2008, 02:56:34 PM Well, Christina Applegate revealed today that she's had a double mastectomy at the age of 36 due to breast cancer. Her boyfriend was found dead in his apartment in June this year too. It must really suck to be her.
(http://images.eonline.com/eol_images/Profiles/20060929/244.applegate.christina.092706.jpg) I feel sorry for her. Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: WayAbvPar on August 19, 2008, 03:38:47 PM Quote double mastectomy I feel sorry for me! Those things were wondrous. Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: Merusk on August 19, 2008, 04:48:06 PM It explains why the boyfriend died, though.
Really sucks for her, she's a nice person by all accounts. A rare thing in Hollywoodland for someone raised there as a kid. Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: Paelos on August 19, 2008, 04:50:03 PM It's cervical cancer, which has a high survival rate when caught relatively early (well over 90%).
Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: Lantyssa on August 19, 2008, 07:10:49 PM I've been impressed with Christina. Giving any disease publicity to raise awareness is a good thing, and she's started a foundation which will help women pay for the more expensive but better detection methods if they're at high risk.
And doing it three weeks after surgery... Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: DraconianOne on August 19, 2008, 11:35:17 PM It's cervical cancer, which has a high survival rate when caught relatively early (well over 90%). On the up side, she probably won't be able to have any more kids. Title: Re: Jade Goody has cancer Post by: K9 on August 20, 2008, 02:44:47 AM I wish Jade Goody would just fuck off.

It's like a horrible oxymoron. |
