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)

New Treatments Hitting Hard

The new treatments (oral chemotherapy and radiation) are hitting Mike pretty hard...pretty quickly. He has felt extreme fatigue today, and he has needed the anti-nausea medication to settle his stomach. He has been unable to do much more today than sit, or lie down, with his eyes closed.

We would appreciate your prayers for God's protection.

"With the living and eternal God as my goal and guide, fear and anxiety need have no place in my life. All the evil in the world cannot destroy Him nor can it destroy anyone within His loving embrace. I have one primary and ultimate desire; to abide within the love and acceptance of God. Within His tender care I know I am safe." Psalms 27:1-4/Psalms Now
