Jade Goody has been sent home to die.
Jade was told earlier this month that her cervical cancer - diagnosed in August last year - had spread to her liver, bowel and groin, and last week underwent an emergency operation to remove a large tumour from her bowel. EPA/STR
The cancer-stricken star, 27, was told on Friday (13.02.09) that there is nothing more doctors can do to prolong her short life.
Jade, who was alone when she heard the devastating news, told Britain's News of the World newspaper: "I couldn't breathe when they told me. I just screamed and cried and said, 'Can't anyone do anything to help me!' Because a few weeks ago when they first told me the chemo hadn't worked they said it didn't have to be the end."
Jade's boyfriend Jack Tweed - who spent from September to January in prison after attacking an 18-year-old with a golf club - told the former 'Big Brother' contestant he wanted them to be a proper family before she dies.
The 21-year-old football agent said:"Right them we're getting married. You're a special woman, I love you and I would be honoured to call you my wife. And I don't care if it's just for a few weeks."
Jade was told earlier this month that her cervical cancer - diagnosed in August last year - had spread to her liver, bowel and groin, and last week underwent an emergency operation to remove a large tumour from her bowel.
The star said: "Since my bowel operation last week the pain has been getting worse and worse and I still haven't been to the loo and I knew that was a bad sign. But I was still preying for a miracle."
The mother of two - who has sons Freddie, four and Bobby, five, with former-boyfriend TV presenter Jeff Brazier - says her family are urging her to go to the US in search of a miracle cure, but she wants to spend her remaining time with her boys.
She said: "But as I listened to them I just kept thinking 'it's too late for me. My time has run out.' All I want to do now is spend whatever time I have left with Jack and the kids."
