TV star Jade Goody Bigg Boss contestant rushes back to London
August 21, 2008
Jade Goody, 27 year-old TV star, was in the middle of taking part in Bigg Boss, the Indian version of the Big Brother reality TV show. Unfortunately after just two episodes, one phone call from London ended her dreams of achieving the possible crown. The TV star, according to media reports, will undergo a hysterectomy after being diagnosed with cervical cancer. Goody is the single mother of two sons, five year-old Bobby and three year-old Freddie. According to a report in the Sun, the doctors have warned Goody that the tumour in her womb may have spread to her bloodstream. In such cases, patients need radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Goody is likely to get her uterus removed. She told the Sun:
“I am fighting for my life. I have got no control over this disease and I am bloody terrified to fight the damn thing every step of the way because I have two beautiful boys who are my world. But I have to be realistic and face the possibility that I might not live to see them grow up.”
She revealed that four previous tests to detect cervical cancer had revealed pre-cancerous cells in her womb. Taking up the Bigg Boss assignment is considered by many as publicity stunt. Goody denied that her illness was a publicity stunt, saying:
“I am sitting here desperately trying to come to terms with the fact that I might die, while people out there accusing me of making my illness up.”
We are sure that people from both countries will be praying for the speedy recovery of Goody, so that her two young sons can enjoy good times with her.
