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)

Here We Go Again!




Another storm is upon us! We just thawed out from our last snow storm yesterday and now we are expected to receive as much as 4-8 inches of snow overnight and through tomorrow. Thank God for a warm house, enough food, and a fire place! God is good!
Mike is feeling a lot better today. He still has bouts with achiness and a sensitive stomach, but he feels he's improving. It's been 7 days now since his treatment. Day 10 is suppose to be the point where his blood counts could dip, although we're not expecting anything different for him, because he is on the Nuelasta injections.
Praises:
Peace and Comfort knowing God is in control
A loving family and friends to pray and trust God with us for Mike's healing
Answered prayer concerning a tax situation
Protection from Mike catching any viruses so far
Prayer requests for Mike:
Relief from headaches he is having (new side effect with this last treatment)
Protection of his vital organs while receiving treatment
Tumor to diminish or disappear from liver
Stents to continue to function properly
Peace for Mike as he continues to do all he can at work, and resting, that his best is good enough
"Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us." Ephesians 3:20
