Jade Goody 'petrified' about cancer surgery

London, Sept 8 : Jade Goody is said to be 'petrified' about her major cancer operation.

The Big Brother star, who is preparing for the surgery at London's Royal Marsden Hospital, will have a hysterectomy on Sept 12 in her bid to beat cervical cancer.

Goody's doctors have already told her that the cancer may have spread, possibly leaving her with a 50 per cent chance of survival.

"She is petrified about Friday and very apprehensive about the future. Everyone who knows her prays she'll get through this and in time come back," the Mirror quoted Goody's agent Mark Thomas, as saying.

The reality TV star, who was informed about her cancer diagnosis on the Indian version on Big Brother, is also facing intensive chemotherapy.
