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's symptoms have worsened today. He wants to see if he improves over the weekend, but he feels he won't be able to make it until April 22, for the biliary exchange in Houston. He is anticipating needing to get this exchange done next week in Little Rock. His new symptoms are mild nausea, chills, headache and body aches, despite his maximum dosage of pain relievers. Thankfully, there is no fever so far. .....Okay, scratch that! Mike developed a fever around 8 p.m.

We would appreciate your prayers.
