"It's a helpless feeling, as long asshe knows am here, which I don't think she's aware of, because she isunconscious, heavily drugged since the pain is excruciating, Max Clifford(Jade's publicist) told me."

Shilpa had rushed to London on Sunday tomeet Jade Goody, but was unable to see the ailing star whose condition isdeteriorating rapidly due to cervical cancer.

"In the current scenario I totallyunderstand what the family must be going through and I respect their privacyand hope she and her family is able to cope with this inexplicable pain. Youare in my prayers, Jade. You are destiny's child!," she added.
