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)

Too Much Excitement

Mike had a rough night Thursday getting to sleep. Even with the sleep medication, the pain medication, and the nausea medication....he was wired, and unable to rest. I think there must have been so much going through his mind that he was grateful for. He finally fell asleep after 4 a.m.

When he woke up this morning he felt a little sick to his stomach, so he had to take more medication to get that under control. Of course, that was when the meds kicked in and he finally felt sleepy....right at the time when he needed to go to work.

He made it into work late and came home a little after lunch time. He's actually sleeping now and hopefully he will wake up feeling better. He's scheduled to go back to the hospital to get his Neulasta injection around 4:30.

Even still.....it's a great day! We have so much to be thankful for!
