Jade Goodys 8 hour surgery goes off successfully
The mum of two has talked about having her womb removed on Living With Jade Goody, filmed before the surgery. "It's the equivalent of a heart transplant so it's a very, very serious operation. All my life I've been told I'm a pig and now I'm being cut open like one. It's a dangerous operation," The Sun quoted her, as saying.
Goody's spokesperson Max Clifford said: "The operation went well. She's got the best people looking after her. She's had surgery, a radical hysterectomy and the operation lasted eight hours." He added: "I spoke to her last night and she was as comfortable as possible and trying to be positive but was obviously feeling very scared as any 27-year-old in that situation would." Goody will now start with a gruelling nine-week course of chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
