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)

A Busy Day

Mike was off from work today so we ran a few errands together in the morning and then later in the afternoon, Mike took a walk around the property and burned some brush while I did some other lawn work. He squeezed in a little time to rest before our daughter and our daughter-in-law, along with their sons, came over for some homemade pizza. (Zac had to work this evening and Matt was off at a church retreat.) Mike had fun playing with the grandsons, so it was a fairly busy day for him. He was a little tired this evening but he would tell you it was all worth it.

We thank you for dropping by our blog today to check on Mike and keeping us in your thoughts and prayers.

"Devote yourselves to prayer; stay alert in it with thanksgiving." Colossians 4.2
