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 kept everything down Friday, which was such a blessing. Thank you for praying for him. He didn't adhere to his self-imposed liquid diet either, which makes this even more of a blessing. He asked me to make him some mashed potatoes for dinner, which he hate maybe a 1/2 cup of, and he had some applesauce. Then around 8 p.m., he got hungry and had me make him some scrambled eggs and a piece of toast, which all stayed down. He also had a good nights rest (and so did I), so we have much to be grateful for.

Thank you so much for praying us through this bad spell.

"I pray that you will begin to understand how incredibly great His power is to help those who believe Him...." Ephesians 1:19 TLB
