Jade Goody Won’t Tell Her Children She is Suffering From Cancer
|
Jade Goody has vowed not to tell her children she is suffering from cancer, despite having a radical hysterectomy and intensive treatment. The reality TV star, known for her appearances in Channel 4’s Big Brother & its celebrity spin-off, is recovering from the operation at London’s Royal Marsden Hospital. But the 27-year-old insists she doesn’t want to frighten her sons, Freddie, aged four and Bobby, aged five, with “the C word”. In a new interview with Britain’s Living TV, she says, “There’s no reason in my eyes for me to use the big C word to them or death or anything like that ’cause it’s daunting. “They don’t understand it anyway; because they’re young I can get away with saying silly things like if I lose my hair I’ll tell them I used the wrong shampoo.” Goody said she had no plans to sue the NHS hospital which she claims was late in diagnosing her illness. “They (the hospital) should have actually spotted that there was something wrong a long time ago,” she said. “I don’t hate them, I’m not angry with them. Sorry - I don’t hate them, I don’t want to start suing them or stuff like that, because personally I don’t think it’s morally right to sue an NHS hospital. “All that’s gonna do is take more money out of it and then more people are gonna suffer. I just think: it’s not going to get my womb back, it’s not going to get my health back. So what’s the point?” Goody was diagnosed with cervical cancer while taking part in Bigg Boss - the Indian version of Big Brother - last month and quit the show early to fly home for treatment.
