I haven't read much of this thread but my mate's friend died from cancer last week and was in his early to mid twenties.
The sooner they can find a cure for this horrible disease the better!

Unfortunately i dont think they will find a cure, just better prevention methods! It is sad and particularly worse when someone is so young

I can't believe some people - they don't get this wound up about other 'celebrity' weddings.
I do. All celebrities annoy the fuck out of me. Not as much as the mong publics adoration of the celebrities. Fuck sake! What pisses me off about all of these hand outs and shit, is the fact that no-one ever bats an eye lid to someone who isnt famous. If some normal lassie with cancer went into Harrods looking for a wedding dress, I bet Al Fayed wouldnt doante her a fucking dress.

Yes but then if someone I knew had cancer, who wanted a favour, I would do all I could to make it happen. If it was Al Fayed then I probably wouldn't. However, he or Goody aren't exactly making an appeal to the general public are they? I detest a lot of the celebrity culture too, in fact I don't like Jad Goody. But I haven't seen many threads moaning about celebrity stuff and frankly everyone but JFW has bigger fish to fry compared to worrying about which z list celebrity did what this week.

Jade Goody is doing an excellent job at providing for her kids. She's playing the game to maximise the money on the rest of her life and as a parent fair play to her. I hope thuogh, that at the end she is treated with the dignity a life should have.

[cynic alert] There won't ever be a cure for any major illness. There's no money in a cure. There's only money in prevention and suppression. Hence, no attempts by drug companies are made into cures. It's not in their interests; why kill the golden goose? [/cynic alert]

This whole Jade business reminds me a little of when Saddam Hussein got executed. On the one hand you feel sad because a human being is going to die but then on the other hand you feel happy because they will not be able to terrorise other people.

Very true. You have to remember who is involved in research related to cancer and what their intentions are. The large drugs companies are in it for money and nothing else.
