Jade Goody's cancer spreads to brain

Reality star Jade Goody's cancer has now spread to her brain as she was operated to help relieve the 'terrible pain' in her stomach and remove a blockage in her bowel.


The terminal disease, which affected Big Brother star's cervix last year, has now spread to her liver, groin and bowel.


"Jade was told while in a hospice at the weekend that the cancer was travelling freely in her blood and had spread to her brain," a close friend of the star told the Sun.


The cancer on reaching the brain can show symptoms like frequent fits, excruciating headaches, vomiting and nausea.

"This is, of course, awful but not unexpected. It hasn't shortened her life expectancy, which remains in weeks. But of course it is another extremely painful reminder of what lies ahead.

"Jade still wants to go home, but won't until she can be given the correct medication to make her condition bearable. She doesn't want to see her kids upset," according to her agent.

The 27-year-old Goody was transferred in the morning from London's Royal Marsden to the nearby Chelsea and Westminster Hospital for surgery.
