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)

Painful Day

Mike is having quite a bit of shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle pain this evening and he is feeling weak and tired. He tried holding off his pain medication until later this afternoon because he was feeling drugged taking it at the prescribed times. Now he is having trouble getting ahead of the pain. He was unable to remain at work after lunch due to feeling weak and tired, and he has been lying down ever since. We would appreciate your prayers that he would begin to feel better soon.

"Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer." Romans 12:12
