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)

Our Hearts Have Been Lifted

Thank you SO much for praying for Mike and I this past week! As I explained in earlier posts, Mike wasn't doing very well. But things turned around for us around Thursday evening, and Mike has not only felt less pain and discomfort, but his total countenance has improved...and subsequently, so has mine. Thank you so much for loving us as you do, for bending a knee on our behalf, and for offering to help in anyway you could. Your encouragement has lifted our hearts.
