In 2007, I began my original website, Sonshine's Haven. In 2007, it was turned into a blog and used to keep family updated on my first husband's fight with liver cancer. He passed away November of 2009. We were married for 34+ wonderful years and this journals some of that grief process I've gone through.

I have since remarried another widower, but Mike is missed dearly, and will always be a big part of my life.

At times, all of us will be called to act as witnesses to the suffering of another. We will be unable to affect the outcome physically. Words will fail us. Prayer will seem futile. And yet, the act of bearing witness to someone else's trials is a sacred sorrow that offers and astounding glimpse of eternal joy." by Ginger Garrett

"Being willing to stay with a loved one throughout their travail, can be difficult....YES! But offering yourselves as faithful companions on a dark and dreadful journey can be an unmeasured blessing." (paraphrased by me)

Treatment -Day 1

Mike had his ultrasound done today to locate the thrombosis in his left clavical artery. The technician gave us the impression nothing was found, so unless we are called later, we are assuming God has taken care of things for us, and the clot is no longer there.

He began his treatment today which took four hours. Usually day 1 goes well and he has lots of energy because of the steroids he's given.

Mike will go back tomorrow for the Neuplasta injection to help keep his blood counts up.

We're trusting God to use these treatments to shrink the tumor and to put Mike into remission.
