Reality TV star Jade Goody has planned her funeral after being told cervical cancer may claim her life by the end of the year.

The mother-of-two opens up about her cancer fight in an intimate interview with a U.K. publication, in which she says she prays nightly that she will live to see her children grow up.

Jade tells OK!, "I've never been a God person, but now I pray every time I go to bed and say stuff like: 'Let me see my children grow'.”

She adds, “Some people say they don't want people crying, but I want people to cry over me. And I don't want anyone to have a booze up when I'm dead.

“They should have a cup of tea and be crying. I'd want to have an open funeral and let everyone who wanted to come along.

“If there's one thing I would look forward to about dying it's that I'd want to be looking down on my family and continue to be part of their lives."
