The way i see it is no-one deserves to die so young, and if her campaign to increase awareness of cervical cancer saves one young life then it has had an impact. RIP Jade. Ed

:thumbsup:

Like her or not she has bought attention to the downfalls of cervical screening and a campaign is now in place for screening under 25,s which could potentially (sp) save lives , some good has come out of something so tragic .

RIP Jade :love:

Sad news, and at least her suffering has come to an end now. Cancer is a terrible way to die and anyone dying so young is awful.
Her decision to still carry on doing it in the media spotlight caused so much controversy amongst some but the way I see it is that she is 'famous' anyway, that wasn't going to go away overnight, journalists are still going to be showing an interest, and yes...more interest if they have her blessing, for want of a better word. She was exploiting them too this time, for her own gain, or her sons gain.

Money hungry it may be some say, but lets face it, its not for her, she knows damn well she wont be around to spend it. What she does know is that for her kids, who are what..? 4 and 5 or something? She, and a lot of people themselves know, that nothing, NOTHING and no amount of money can make up for losing a parent, and for them to lose mummy at such a young age is terrible.
If it was me, given the chance to spend a few hours doing some poxy interview and / or have a few pictures snapped, and getting tens of thousands of pounds into their trust fund, who's to say I or anyone may not do the same? Who knows what people may do when theyre staring death in the face? Its pretty low for people to spout that someone with a terminal illness should or shouldn't be doing this or that IMO. They are on borrowed time, and its their life so what the fcuk has it got to do with anyone else, least of all some strangers. If she chose to dance naked down the street with a bloody pineapple on her head then let her, its up to her! Its pretty easy to turn the page / not watch the programme / not buy the magazine if you're so offended. :rolleyes:

The little boys have got many many years of education to come, school, college, maybe university, countless years worth of birthdays and Christmas' presents that Jade will never get to see with them, driving lessons, holidays, school trips, toys, haircuts, food, clothes and shoes they need, etc etc... so if Jade wants to feel that she can still contribute to all those, and put a secure roof over their heads then fair play to her I say. If it was my little ones it would break my heart to think I couldnt do that for them and i'd be so worried that they may grow up struggling as well as motherless. Jade was the money spinner , so she's spinning money while she still can. She is trying to take financial responsibility her kids. Its people who dont, and there are a lot of those out there :naughty: who deserve the criticism if anyones on their soapbox about that.

I wasn't particularly a Jade fan, but I am sad to hear the news, and to hear of her suffering, same as I am if I hear anyones got cancer / see what it does to people. I also feel sorry for her family. They're the ones now suffering a loss, and have had to watch her deteriorate, and If it was me whose mum/ partner/ daughter/ grandaughter/friend who was dying and I had to know that people had been slating them and calling them some appalling names then, right or wrong, I'd think that was revolting and I'd feel like strangling them with my bare hands :mad:
Imagine in the future when her kiddies are more grown up and would like to maybe read a bit about their mum and happen to read something where she's being called all the names under the sun. Shameful. Also, hurtful for those poor boys. :(


Very sad that she ended up dying on Mothers day too. RIP Jade, and condolences to her family xx :love:

R.I.P Jade I thought she was quality very funny and she managed to keep her feet on the ground after finding fame, she did well for herself considering she had a poor start in life and she was a good mum to her lads!
I just hope this helps raise awareness with the ladies about keeping on top of those smear tests and also what a horrendus incurable disease cancer is which affects us all and how we need to keep fighting it!!
 
Not been funny like but she was a nobody :$ :|

'kinell...she clearly wasn't a nobody-don't think i'd get that coverage if i was about to kark it.

anyway...respect to her. was awful to watch someones rise and demise in such meteoric proportions. wether you like her or not-it is hard not to be a bit moved at least...it was a horrible way to go.

i fell sooooo bad for her boys (on mothers day!!!). god bless you both.
 
I still can't believe shes actually gone.... my heart goes out to her family. I was watching sky news yesterday and all morning it was breaking news about her. I can't stand her mum but I even felt sorry for her.
Just heard the funeral is next saturday, I bet the turn out will be massive and I just hope they do change the age for smear testing to prevent more young women dying....

R.I.P Jade
