Big Boss participant, Jade Goody, has been diagnosed with grievous stage 2 cervical cancer.

Jade’s doctors fear that a big tumor on her womb may have extend to her bloodstream increasing the chance of secondary tumours.

The 27-year-old Jade, who left the Indian version of "Big Brother" called "Bigg Boss" last week after being informed of the cancer diagnosis, has to go through an urgent hysterectomy, and follow it up with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, which will result in hair loss.

Jade said, “I’m fighting for my life. I am going to fight the damn thing every step of the way because I have two beautiful boys who are my world. But I have to be realistic and face the possibility that I may not live to see them grow up.”

“I can't face telling my boys because they are so young. They think mummy has a tummy ache,” she added.

She was diagnosed according to the international rules of reality shows according to which each and every contestant have to undergo medical tests before signing the contract.

Goody was examined for cancer before she flew out to India, after she collapsed at home.

Four smear examinations for cervical cancer previously had showed pre-cancerous cells in her uterus but on each occasion she had been cleared after the cells were removed.
