and do you know what

i wont have a bad word said about her

Poor girl

Shit parents and crappy childhood
YES she went in BB and acted like a fool and YES she went in BB a second ime and said some ignorant racist stuff

but she was 'ill educated' and she did not 'know better' but in her favour :

she educated herself

she learned her lesson

she apologised and meant it

I AM a fan of Jade

I like her a lot and feel much sadness at this vibrant and humour full life cut short

Her little boys were goign to have the mother she never had and i SO relate to that

so KISSES for Jade tonight and much love -sign in if you wish !

No dessention please - not on here!

I don't think this is a competitive grief exercise at all. If anything, it's a "I'm glad it's her and not me" thing. As I said earlier, it must be truly awful for a mother to die and leave her young children. Personally it is my worst nightmare.

For that reason, I have great sympathy for jade and anyone else in this situation. Whether they apppear in Heat/OK/Closer magazine or not.

Bree, how is your Dad?

AitchTwoOh · 27/02/2009 23:41

as it happens i don't really think that this thread is too bad on the competitive grieving front, and i broadly agree with the OP apart from the mawkish title. but i do think, gosh, she's young and it's a shame etc.

but if you're really asking, toomanywrinkles, what the difference is between people we know on here, hear from every day, who are our friends and some daft lassie off the telly, you're cracked in the heid.

IS it just me, that thinks she will die this weekend? hospice for meds? I feel for her boys

Not too bad, in a dying sort of way.

Slower than we thought Thank God, but our fab black familial humour is getting us through.

Thank you for asking.

AitchTwoOh · 27/02/2009 23:46

now that, hannah, is unbelievably ghoulish. i refer you to tinatuna's death list scandal of yesterday.

2shoes · 27/02/2009 23:46

BreeVanDerCampLGJ sorry to hear that

dontgive2shoites4daftpricks · 27/02/2009 23:46

OH you can tell she spends so much more time with them from lady di just from all those pics in heat, ok, now, etc.

I was very sad to hear about Wendy Richards, about Ivan Cameron, and about Jade Goody. But I dont feel the need to post perpetually about it and give regular updates on it. I knew a child with the same condition as Ivan that died, and I have known many many people - old and young - some with young children, die from cancer. It makes me sad because I know what's to come for Jade et al.

But it's not my grief. And I feel able to both compare my own feelings and experiences, yet keep a healthy perspective about a person('s) I neither know, or met, circumstances.

I think it's important to distinguish between it, and understand that it wont necessarily mean the same for other people.

I dont see anything untoward about my healthy perspective on Jade Goody.

GypsyMoth · 27/02/2009 23:46

No,I just disliked her. And her attitude.

thumbwitch · 27/02/2009 23:47

I sort of agree with you Aitch, except that I (and probably a lot of other MNers) have posted on bereavement/illness threads with messages of sympathy for MNers who I don't know at all, have never conversed with. Perhaps that makes me a competitive sympathiser, but that's not how I see it - I feel sad for that person and want to offer them sympathy and support. I hope that's how they see it too.

2shoes · 27/02/2009 23:47

Brie5 have you met Jade

BreeVanDerCampLGJ · 27/02/2009 23:48

Divine

Do I look/sound like a poster who hangs around Balmoral on Christmas day (never understood that either)

Think very carefully before you answer...

i have not seen threads on Jade but will check in future

dont MN in day so maybe should have checked

title was maybe a bit much but had drunk wine for first time in a while and felt blue

AitchTwoOh · 27/02/2009 23:49

true, thumbwitch, i've done the same. i think when you are making a direct link with that person there is an element of 'never mind the quality, feel the width'. but that is simply not the case with celebs.

dontgive2shoites4daftpricks · 27/02/2009 23:49

toomanywrinkles - please read my post further down.

I think your comments reinforce the whole mawkishness aspect.

i KNEW you'd had a drink when you wrote that title. lol. cheers!

GypsyMoth · 27/02/2009 23:50

No 2shoes and not likely to.

2shoes · 27/02/2009 23:50

Imo posting to support a fellow poster is different to all this, they are your cyber freinds.
and it does help imo

dontgive2shoites4daftpricks · 27/02/2009 23:51

I've always said alcohol is the divvils work.

2shoes · 27/02/2009 23:51

Brie5 sorry my mistake, you dissed diana and spoke nicely about Jade so I assumed you had met both

BreeVanDerCampLGJ · 27/02/2009 23:52

And a very un Bree like hug.

dontgive2shoites4daftpricks · 27/02/2009 23:52

That's exactly it 2shoes.
People read so much about schlebs - it's almost real to them, like they know them. It's not v healthy, IMVHO.
