Help Us Help Caro & her Girls. Please donate as little or as much as you can to support Caro's palliative care & daughters future.

Canterbury

In September of 2022, Caro finally found out her persisting pain had been cancer. She had had to fight hard for this, despite her ongoing health issues escalating.

Like the champ Caro is, she smashed through an accelerated Chemo plan, surgery and recovery all whilst working when she could.

This is who Caro is. An extremely hard working, smart, fiercely loyal woman who loves her job & girls.

In July 2023, Caro had follow up checks that showed more cancer, advancing even into her bones. Over the next few months and more scans, Caro learned the cancer was spreading further and fast and in February of this year found there wasn’t any more treatment for her and all there was left to do is manage her pain.

Tragically there’s nothing more to be done for her medically & sadly Caro will be remaining in palliative care with her village making the preparations for her end of life care.

It has been incredible watching this quick witted, beautiful soul having to accept and adjust to this news.

Caro has focused solely on beating this Cancer and remaining positive for those around her.

Sadly our hope for a miracle for Caro is fading, but we can still help her by helping her young daughters. She has organised as much as she can for her daughters Caitlyn & Amy's future, but we want to relieve the pressure.

Caro has reluctantly allowed me to set up this page so that we can help relieve as much pressure as we can for the girls future and ask for any donation, big or small that will assist them during this time.

Sarah Columbus' involvement (page creator)

I'm setting this page up on behalf of the many loyal friends in Caro's village. Caro has been there for every one of us in different ways over her life. We can't do much to help, but this is our way of supporting her legacy.A unique, vibrant & fun friend

Use of funds

All donations will be going solely to Caro's daughters to maintain current expenses and hopefully some to put away for their futures. Funds will be released to Caro's oldest Caitlyn.
