Jade Goody had a list of things to do

LONDON - When doctors first told Jade Goody that her cancer had spread and she had just a 40 per cent of survival, she wrote a list of things to do, it has been revealed.
The former Big Brother star’s best friend Jennifer Smith, 30, has revealed that Goody made a wish list of all the crazy things she’d always wanted to do.
The first thing on her list was ‘pole dancing,’ Smith said.
“Another thing she wanted was for us to go to Pineapple Studios, learn a dance routine and then take it on to the streets and do it in front of hundreds of people,” News of the World quoted her as saying.
“Up until that point I thought, ‘OK, I can do this.’ But then the next thing was for us to ‘jump out of a plane’ which wasn’t funny for me at all because Jade knew I was terrified of flying and couldn’t in a million years jump out of a plane.
“She also wanted us to do go- karting which might have been a laugh. But the thing that would make up for everything was Ascot - except she spelled it ‘Acott’ which had us in stitches as we worked out what she was talking about.
“But that would have been the best thing - all the gels dressed up in their finery, drinking Champagne and trying to be posh.
“We never got to do any of the things on that list because a few days after we wrote it Jade was told the cancer was terminal. She didn’t have a 40 per cent chance any more. She had no chance at all. So the wish list was shelved - along with all our hopes.
“You know, I always thought that if I had a terminal illness I’d want to know so I could plan and arrange things. But having watched Jade plan what she wanted to do, use every ounce of her strength trying to make it happen, and then discover she didn’t have enough time, was agonising,” she added. (ANI)
