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 ended up vomiting again last night and had continuous indigestion and hiccups until morning. We both got very little rest. I tried talking Mike into seeing our family doctor today but wasn't successful. He finally allowed me to call the oncologist's office here in town. His nurse called about 20 minutes ago, after speaking with the doctor, and told us if Mike vomits anymore, we are to go to the emergency room and have him get an IV. He has an appointment to see his oncologist Tuesday. In the meantime, Mike has put himself on a liquid diet. I'm praying whatever this is, will fix itself quickly, so we don't end up with him in the hospital for Thanksgiving.

Thank you for continuing to pray for us.
