Jade Goody wants her television show to continue - despite being told her cancer could be incurable.
The 'Big Brother' star - who was recovering last night from an operation to remove a life-threatening tumour from her bowel - has told bosses at Living TV that she wants to continue with the documentary about her cervical cancer despite being told she might have just 12 weeks to live.
The 27-year-old mum-of-two has said: "I have to do this for my kids."
Jade's decision to carry on filming the fly-on-the-wall documentary 'Jade: The Next Chapter' for her sons Bobby, five and Freddie, four, has left television executives in a moral dilemma about whether to air what may be the reality television star's last few months.
It has been reported that Living TV executive Claudia Rosencrantz said:
"I've cried so much for Jade and have been very emotional for her. But she needs this money so much for her two sons. She also needs the opportunity to show the world how to avoid cancer. That's also important to her."
Jade has been placed on a new drug called Hycamtin after she was told last week that her cervical cancer had spread to her bowel, groin and liver and that doctors will do their best to keep her alive as long as possible rather than curing the disease.
