Jade Goody Leaves The Royal Marsden Hospital

Jade Goody's babydaddy Jeff Brazier has been talking about how their children Bobby (six) and Freddie (5) have been talking about their mummy non-stop since she lost her battle with cervical cancer on Mother's Day last year. In an interview with 'Woman's Own', Jeff explains:

"We talk about her in a very normal capacity. Like when they're cleaning their teeth - Jade was a dental nurse and they're very aware of that. They say things like, 'Mummy did this, didn't she?' or 'Mummy had one of those cars!' You can see she's always on their minds. I'm not expecting them to forget about Jade and I don't want them to. They're constantly around people who were close to their mum.
Mother's Day is hugely significant, but I'm not going to impress that on the boys or remind them how they've been without their mum for a year. I'll say, 'Let's remember mummy, it's Mother's Day', but not mention it's the day mummy died. We'll be going to mummy's special place - her grave. It's beautiful there. We'll make cards and buy some flowers to leave there. We're not going to sit down and talk about Jade because we've been talking about her since the day she died.
"

I think Jeff's approach to tackling his sons' grief has been remarkable for such a young dad.

Can you believe it's almost a year since Jade died? So much has happened since, especially with her widower Jack Tweed and his huge legal difficulties. At least her boys are doing well.
