Cancer is one of the frequently talked about and most feared disease that falls under the genre of lifestyle diseases that have evolved, rather rapidly, in the past two decades.

"I finished radiotherapy and my first course of chemotherapy last month. I've had a few weeks off treatment which has been so nice," the Mirror quoted her as writing in her New! magazine diary.

"But on December 15 I start having big doses of chemo every month. This is when it gets really tough and I can say bye-bye to my hair," she added.

Goody had been at the centre of much controversy after appearing on the Channel 4 reality show 'Big Brother' in 2007 where she had been accused of racist bullying against Indian actress Shilpa Shetty.
