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)

Mike's Mom is Improving



Mike's mom, Cecile, walked down to the nursing home dining room today, which was WONDERFUL to see, because it shows she's improving. The antibiotic seems to be helping her Pnuemonia and so are your prayers. Thank you.
Mike has stayed in bed so far today, being sick to his stomach. This treatment seems to be one where the side effects have hit almost immediately after treatment, instead of waiting a couple of days afterwards. Maybe Sunday and Monday will be easier for him. He's hoping to feel well enough later this afternoon to eat burgers with the kids.
Thank you for remembering our family in your thoughts and prayers. Happy Fourth of July!
