Was woken up with my phone ringing incessantly since 8am in the morning, London time… had a sneaky feeling about what it was going to be. Can’t explain it, but I just knew and there it was, what I was expecting but dreading… Jade had passed away at 3.14am in the morning. She put up a brave fight, lost her battle with cancer but won many a heart with her courage and how she dealt with it. My heart sunk on hearing the news, but in hindsight was glad she wasn’t in pain anymore and passed away peacefully in her sleep. She truly has brought about awareness for Cervical Cancer and hope young women learn the importance of getting smear tests done regularly to diagnose any early symptoms! I for one am getting one done soon. It’s not worth taking LIFE FOR GRANTED… Can’t articulate my feelings into words.
All I can say is she truly was a special person and even in her last moment all she could think of was securing her family’s future, she didn’t care how, but her goal was just that… She died a hero’s death. Hope her family gets the strength to cope with this irreparable loss. A special prayer goes out to Bobby and Freddie, her sons for whom this pain must be worse. It’s MOTHER’S DAY today and to lose a mom is just inexplicable. My heartfelt condolences and hope her soul rests in peace… at last.

May her soul rest in peace….I think it’s really hard for her sons.
It’s sad, but she doesn’t has to suffer anymore.
There are no words for this….

Hi Shilpa
honestly, i hated Jade coz she troubled you at Big Brother. But yes, now that she has passed, i do feel very very sorry for her loss. But i came here to comment on something else actually, so i’ll continue with that.
I just saw your Yoga DVD. Heard about it on Farhan’s show. I was looking forward to start yoga and you were there right on time. Do i really need to say it was awesome when its supposed to be quite obvious? Well, i will still.. IT ROCKS!! So easy to follow and i was looking for the right instructions as to which Asana was for what, and its right there! I wish you looked a little less attractive so i could concentrate more on the asana than watching your waist (though i am a woman LOL), but thats not possible i guess? you look good always. I could only dream of that zero figure after one baby :-(. Hope you do read my comment. http://opalscraps.blogspot.com
I’d love to scrapbook you sometime. Take a look at my blog to know what i am talking about.
Hugs

Thanks to Shilpa; Not many people would have given Jade a second chance, but you did, and have been a good friend. I’m sure if Jade had recovered she would have returned to India, probably with her boys at some point. Alas, it was not to be……..God Bless. Jennifer Willis, England UK.

Certainly nothing in Jade’s life became her like the leaving of it. The news media went beyond grotesque in feeding on the sad situation. Your point about checkups and prevention is salient. Cancer is such a horrible disease. On a happier note, your public appearances, videos, and upcoming movies bring sunshine and smiles to your fans. We love you, Shilpa. Thanks for taking time to blog.

We live life in all term sadness happiness memories pain sweetness but we cant understand what’s really going own life is a short experience that Allah has given it to us to recognize how great he is how merciful he is how wise he is the only creator of everything wants us to return to him not in mosques charges or manders in our hearts to feels him yes I believe Jade no in safe hands we should not worry about her now Shilpa God is Great,
in our life we live we may curse our destiny or don’t satisfy of what we have or how we feels but once death comes in a few seconds in flash back we will understand everything and we will day in peace and fade away in eternity for ever and ever again

Hello..!!
Was busy with my Board exams..wer a disaster..!!..LOL..!!
But I hardly liked Jade. for the face that she was so abusing and was doing all tht i feel just to win Big Brother.It made me feel that whatever you do, you have to repent here.But by giving her one more chance you have shown the Indian spirit.I am PROUD of that
May her soul lie in piece……!!

Shilpa jee, i was so happily amazed to read that you had made friends with jade after she had done such shame to you. you are such a kind heart, and are clearly the bigger person. it is so wonderful that you learned from your experiences too……so many westerners have so much to learn from the morals of us desi lok, and you are a model of grace. bless your heart! - mrs nirmal singh
