Charity Cancer Research U.K. said in a statement earlier this month that daily visits to its Web site had increased two- to three-fold since news of Goody's illness was announced. "The publicity around Jade's diagnosis has led many more people to ask questions and seek information about cervical cancer," spokeswoman Emma Gilgunn-Jones said.
