NEWSJade Goody Prepares Her Farewell
March 16 2009, Published 4:49 a.m. ET
Jade Goody's family are today readying themselves for the end after the cancer-stricken star deteriorated over the weekend.
Yesterday, the former Big Brother contestant was visited at her home in Essex, England, by her young sons, Bobby, 5, and Freddy, 4, as the U.K. OK! reports.
Her friend and publicist Max Clifford said: “She has put her house in order and faced up to everything in an incredibly brave way. Now we’re waiting for the inevitable, it could be at any time, we just don’t know.”
Although she was under sedation and spent much of Saturday and Sunday sleeping, she smiled when she saw her children and was “briefly conscious” of their presence, according to Clifford.
Jade's mother Jackiey Budden and husband Jack Tweed were also at her bedside.
The family had been hoping for friends and loved ones to visit but the 27-year-old was not well enough.
Mr Clifford added: “She’s getting weaker, she’s fading, but she’s got a big heart which is probably why she’s still alive. We’re on the edge of a precipice, nobody knows when she’s going to step off, whether it will be five minutes or five days. But she’s where she wanted to be with the people she wanted to be with in her final hours.”
