Bloody hell thats awful!

FlibbertyGiblets · 26/08/2020 12:15

Very sad news, bastard bloody cancer.

Awful that her privacy was invaded by someone posting online that she'd been seen in hospital, the fuckers.

GnomeOrMistAndIceGuy · 26/08/2020 12:19

God, why can;t people's private medical issues stay private? Massive shame on the person who posted seeing her in hospital!

That is terrible, both the news and that she had to announce it. So young.

Pavlova31 · 26/08/2020 12:23

Terrible that someone even thought to invade her privacy like this Sad

Itshissister · 26/08/2020 12:26

@FlibbertyGiblets she put it on her own instagram didnt she?

FlibbertyGiblets · 26/08/2020 12:29

Yes she did. I'll copy and paste a bit hang on...

FlibbertyGiblets · 26/08/2020 12:30

"...But last week it was mentioned online that I had been seen in hospital, so I feel now is the time to let people know what’s going on and this is the best way I can think of to do so..."

FlibbertyGiblets · 26/08/2020 12:33

So she has been bounced into announcing her illness in preference to being the subject of speculation, using up valuable energy both physical and emotional.

Whatsnewpussyhat · 26/08/2020 12:35

So sad.

Ellamiss · 26/08/2020 12:35

I was just reading about this and that someone was about it ‘out her’. Nosey stalkers. Like everyone else I wish her well and I hope she is left alone.

Itshissister · 26/08/2020 12:35

@FlibbertyGiblets got ya!

Smallsteps88 · 26/08/2020 12:38

Jesus, have people no sense of decency anymore? Angry as if someone suffering from cancer isn’t going through enough! How dare anyone think it’s right to announce they saw her in hospital. Absolute dickhead. Who reared them?

Ihopeyourcakeisshit · 26/08/2020 12:43

How sad that she has felt forced into going public by some low life.
Best of luck to her.

Starsabove1 · 26/08/2020 12:51

Poor woman, she’s had a very rough ride these last few years.

38 is so young to have such an agressive form of the disease.

Malaya · 26/08/2020 12:52

Very sad news. It’s also pathetic that the poor woman was forced to reveal it to the public for fear of being outed

WheresMyMilk · 26/08/2020 12:54

Poor Sarah. I’m such a huge girls aloud fan and I’m really shocked by this. I hope she is receiving lots of love and support and wish her the best in overcoming this.

Sickening she was forced into this - she apparently only found out it had spread a week to so ago, and although not a doctor I assume this doesn’t have good implications and must be devastating - so this invasion of privacy is the last thing she needs.

derxa · 26/08/2020 12:55

Poor Sarah. I've always liked her.

Afternooninthepark · 26/08/2020 12:57

I have just been reading it on Instagram, so sad and so young, I hope she makes a good recovery and can fight this god awful disease, 38 is too young.

barberousbarbara · 26/08/2020 13:02

It's terrible that she's been forced to announce this. I've spent most of this year battling breast cancer and it's hard enough without having to tell the world. I've gone through my battle without telling anyone apart from those who really needed to know. My battle is won (for now and hoping it stays that way) but I'm still reluctant to tell people.

My thoughts are with her and I hope she's able to fight a good fight.

Monstermuncher · 26/08/2020 13:04

This is so very sad. How awful that she was forced into going public about her health just because some attention seeker posted about her online.

I'm so pleased for you and wish you continued good health. My mum had a double mastectomy, chemo and radio three years ago.... so far, so good. 🤞
Devlesko · 26/08/2020 13:08

I don't know anyone who saw that she had been in hospital. I doubt many would have known if she had chosen not to announce it.
I vaguely remember her from one of the girl groups.
Such a shame, I hope she has support from family and friends.

SoManyActivities · 26/08/2020 13:09

I have just seen this, it's awful, and Stage 4 as well. I can't believe it actually (and I say that as someone who had breast cancer in her thirties), I don't know why but this has shocked me a bit Sad

JaneJeffer · 26/08/2020 13:12

Very sad news.
