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)

I'm so grateful for your prayers! Mike did better today. He still slept quite a bit, but he did get up in between, and tried to sit outside for a little while in the sun. He told me he felt better today. I was just grateful to see him more like himself. When he isn't feeling well, he hardly speaks, which makes me a little more nervous. His blood pressure was pretty low this morning, so I tried pushing fluids into him, in case he was dehydrated, and this afternoon it was back up to a normal range for him.

We will call the doctor's office in the morning to see what they want to do. I will keep you updated.

"You shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart." Jeremiah 29:13
