I read a while ago that people did not believe her illness and thought she was faking that she had cancer because she lived so long.
Inspirational woman.
My thoughts are with her family.
RIP

Jane was a true fighter, not only for her own life, but those of others.
Cancer does not always have a visual aspect on the sufferer, I know, as I have just lost my father due to cancer, and my mother has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
She was a very brave lady, and will no doubt have saved many lives.

Very brave lady who gave up her precious and valuable time to raise money so that others could benefit even though she would not. She is someone people should look up to and take note off and the example she has set is amazing, it just shows what you can do if you are determined and strong willed.
It is a shame people have needed to try and make her look like she is faking her illness, all shes was trying to do was to raise money and raise awareness.

Yes I agree that the brave spirits stay for long with us and one those that is alive and hope for long time too is Armstrong that won 6 several Tour the France after been three years doing treatment against cancer.
But as usual only after died people have knowledge about the noble person.

I saw that on the news, about the hate mail and abusive phone calls she was getting from people who did not believe that she had terminal cancer and I shuddered, how awful are some people? I cannot imagine how hard that must have been for her children
She was a truly inspirational woman, I hope her children are inspired by her actions and they and her husband can can strength from her strenght of character at this difficult time.

Having a existence in Gods presence is eternal/eternal existence. All mankind would be resurrected and delivered in the previous the judgment seat of God. After the resurrection all mankind would be immortal, some will obtain "existence" and stay with God for eternity, others will obtain non secular dying and be forged into the pit (hell) the place they'll by no skill experience God's impact ever lower back. study the scriptures in context. As consistently taking one verse and assuming it teaches an entire doctrine will aways bring about blunders.

those of us who have lost to cancer would have given anything to have that amount of time with our loved ones. the people who think she was faking probably never did anything worth being remembered for. i know that if i was diagnosed with terminal illness of any sort i would like to have been half as brave, gutsy and determined as she was. her family should be so proud of her and the things she did to raise money so that we may find a cure for cancer. god bless her i say and to the morons who think differently i say get off your butts and do something more useful with your lives. may she rest in peace and her family were blessed to have had that precious time with her. just a shame that it had to happen to someone who inspires me every time i complain about a headache. i am humbled by such guts and determination.

A truly remarkable lady. Her family must be so proud of her and many will benefit from her unselfish actions. My wife underwent surgery for breast cancer 18 months ago followed by gruelling sessions of chemotherapy, radiotherapy and herceptin. I know what she went through which makes this extraordinary woman's achievements even more fantastic.

Jane Tomlinson, "is a peson i would of gave my own life for", quite simply i think that she has put so much effort into "cancer research" she put the last years of her life in to finding a cure for cancer when most people would just give up on life as soon as their diagnosed, I believed she lived so long" because she fought for her life to save others.
"May you R.I.P" god bless

I have a terminal lung condition and unless i get a transplant my life expectancy is 14mths or so, yet because of drugs i am on STEROIDS i look remarkably well, i am 6ft tall and weigh 17stone, so i can see how shallow sick people dare doubt her illness, if she had puss riddled sores bleeding everywher then those people wouldnt of doubted here,,,They are called Ignorant Gits!!!, God bless her family and may her inspiration shine on.
