Camille Doncieux cause of death cancer
Illness and death
Camille became ill after the Hoschedés family came to live with the Monets. Much of the money that Monet had made on the sale of his paintings was used to pay for her medical care. Alice nursed her during her illness.On her deathbed, last rites were given by a priest on 31 August 1879. He also religiously sanctioned the Monets' civil marriage.She died of pelvic cancer (although some sources say the cause of her death was tuberculosis, or possibly a botched abortion) on 5 September 1879 in Vétheuil. Monet painted her on her deathbed.
