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)

"Peace I Leave With You"

Mike's day was a little better today. This mornings treatment had him feeling a little puny, but his afternoon treatment went better. We haven't been able to figure out if it is the radiation treatments, the chemotherapy pills, or both, that is causing the problem. We're just thanking God for any improvement, big or small, he has. Thank you for continuing to keep us in your prayers.

Tomorrow's routine is much the same as today's. On Friday, Mike will see the radiation doctor, and the nutritionist, in addition to his treatments. So maybe he can help us figure out what may be causing Mike's problem, unless it's something that will eventually just improve with time.

"But the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:26-27
