Is also actually a good thing to allow people to see her going through her chemotherapy as it may help to reassure people waiting for chemotherapy themselves.
Apart from her consenting to the documentary it`s the media who have been pursuing her and photographing her.... I daresay there`s times when she`s not wanting to be photographed. The most shocking thing was a picture of her just after she`d received her diagnosis and she was trying to shield her face, she wasn`t inviting attention then.
As I mentioned earlier do you consider Karen Keating to be an attention *****? or Kylie?? Kylie whilst not allowing herself to be filmed gave plenty of newspaper and magazine interviews.

She has the potential to raise a LOT of money and awareness for everyone who suffers from, or will suffer from this disease.
Instead she's just doing it for her kids, which if thats the motivation, is it really bravery or is it just "doing what she has to".
Thats pretty selfish in my opinion, especially if the figures bandied about about her personal wealth are to be believed.
As for being hounded by the press - well that old proverb about "living by the sword" seems valid.
