Jade Goody Raises Cancer Awareness
Since the tragic death of British reality TV show star Jade Goody, cancer organizations have reported an increase in women inquiring about effects and testing of cancer. Goody was diagnosed with cervical cancer which is curable if caught early. PEOPLE reports that friend and publicist Max Clifford said “Her legacy will be that a lot of women owe their lives to Jade Goody because of her public announcement and battle against cervical cancer.”
It has been reported that there has been as much as a 30% increase in women being tested. Cancer Research UK, Britain’s largest cancer charity, gives Goody credit for an increase in awareness about the disease. Goody has certainly left a positive impact on women everywhere.
