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)

Another Bad Day

Mike seemed to start the day off okay, but came home at lunch, and has been in bed all afternoon sick to his stomach. It's possible the Nuelasta injections might be causing his body aches. We really didn't put that together until Mike called the oncologist's nurse for a prescription for pain medications. She mentioned this new body pain could possibly be from those injections Mike takes on the day after treatment to boost his bone marrow.

Please pray that Mike will recover from this last treatment and that this additional side effect will only be temporary. And continue to trust God with us, for these chemo treatments to be effective in reducing this tumor.

"Remember that we have no more faith at any time than we have in the hour of trial. All that will not bear to be tested is mere carnal confidence. Fair-weather faith is no faith."--C. H. Spurgeon
