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)

Leaning on His Love

Today has been a better day for Mike. He felt well enough to work most of the day and even attended a business lunch, so we're very grateful for the strength he gained, and the improvement he's made in just a day. He even had enough energy to hold and play with both of his grandsons on the couch this afternoon. We're hoping for another good day tomorrow. Thank you so much for keeping him in your thoughts and prayers.

"Strength is often found within the silence while resting in the presence of the Lord. Abiding in His peace, we feel His power; while leaning on His love, we are restored." BJ Hoff
