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)

We have just heard from the doctor's office. Mike's bilirubin count has slightly increased from 1.1 to 1.2. Some other lab results had improved also, but a few others elevated slightly. The consensus was to take a watch and see approach. If any symptoms become worse, we'll definitely have the exchange early.

Mike is feeling pretty good, considering things. I'm confident God's hand and your prayers are keeping things under control for us. Thank you for remembering us in your prayers. We'll keep you updated.

"He is a shield to those who take refuge in Him." Proverbs 30:5
