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)

We see the oncologist tomorrow morning and then Mike will get his Neulasta injection. We're expecting to schedule the CT scan date tomorrow.
Right now, Mike is feeling the normal jitters following a treatment, and the usual weakness/nausea in his stomach. He came home and slept for a good two hours and has woke up feeling a little better.
While Mike was taking his treatment, I went to visit his mom. She is definitely uncomfortable on her left side, which seems to be the side the Pnuemonia is in. They have put her on a stronger antibiotic so we're hoping she'll begin to feel better soon. They are also giving her a little pain medication because she's sore from coughing the past week. We're a little concerned because she isn't getting up and moving. I spoke with the RN on duty, and she didn't act like there was any concern and just told me she felt the antibiotic would help. So we would appreciate your continued prayers for her.
"Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us." Ephesians 3:20
