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)

Update: The needle biopsy is scheduled for tomorrow morning (Thurs) at 7:30 a.m., at Baptist Medical Center. They will NOT be using general anesthesia for this test.

Our news isn't good this evening. We have learned that there is a 2 centimeter nodule on Mike's thyroid that the doctors would like to have biopsied. Our largest concern is how this can be done with Mike's blood pressure not tolerating general anesthesia very well. We don't know if general anesthesia will be necessary to biopsy this. We will know more news tomorrow. Mike is very nervous about having anything done in Little Rock, because of what happened to him last July. We would deeply appreciate your prayers as we try to find the best direction to go in, and for Mike's safety through all of this.

"For I am the Lord, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you." Isaiah 41:13
