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)

Today Mike resumed physical therapy, and after an hour, he was tuckered out. I worried slightly when he came home and he layed down, wondering if he might have over done things, but he seemed better when he woke up.
Thank you for checking in on both of us today. As we continue to adjust to our new life, please pray God's presence will fill any empty places we might be wrestling with, and He will leave us His grace and strength to take things in stride, and face each new day. We will be seeing Mike's oncologist here tomorrow morning at 7:30. These appointments are difficult, and a little scary for me, so I would appreciate your prayers.
