The time is here. After 3 yrs of struggle, today I entered hospice when nothing has stopped the advance of my primary peritoneal cancer.

Thank you to everyone for your support. You can read about my story at www.CaringBridge.org/visit/caroleSeaton

    It is with great sadness

    It is with great sadness that I must inform you, on Doug's behalf, that his beloved Carole passed today just before noon.  Her final hours were peaceful, with Doug spending the night awake and next to her holding her hand.  Through the night she was still able to acknowledge his squeeze. Through yesterday she was lucid, strong, and having conversations with both Doug and me.  I was privileged to be able to witness Doug's constant caring and love for her.  I know you all share with me a deep respect for the good fight she gave, and the courage and grace she displayed in the face of death.
    Services will be held in Worthington, Minnesota.  Final details are pending, and will be posted on this site.
