My neighboure lost her step mother last week, I said so sorry for you loss and sent a card although I had never met the step mother.
When you hear someone has passed it is usual to express sympathy, although none of us have met Jade she was someone we had heard of she is in the public eye.
Also she has raised a point that smear testing should be done from a lower age, that is worth discussing.
A young mother has died, yes I know she is not the first or only one and wont be the last, I am sure other family's are going through the same as hers today, but she is the one we have heard about and so it is her death we are commenting on.
Two children got up this morning and instead of going in to mummys room with finger painted cards and paper flowers they were told mummy had gone to heaven, (you don't know that could be your children this time next year, life is fragile) anyone who can not feel some sort of sadness over that has something very wropng with them.
This thread was started to express sympathy over the death of a young mother, not to become a slanging match, this is a big site and I am sure those who want to pick over the treatment, press coverage, Jades life the good the mistakes and everything could go do it elsewhere.
