Helen’s Decline and Dr. Seuss’s Infidelity
For decades, Helen was Geisel’s partner in both life and work. She co-founded the “Beginner Books” imprint and was a driving force behind many of his famous works, although she rarely received public credit. However, Helen suffered from severe health issues later in life, including Guillain-Barré Syndrome, which left her in chronic pain and partially paralyzed.
During this time, Geisel became involved in an extramarital affair with Audrey Stone Dimond, a family friend. This affair, combined with Helen’s declining health, led to intense emotional turmoil.

She left behind a poignant suicide note that reflected both her love for Geisel and her deep despair over their fractured relationship.
