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 has had a little trouble today, feeling tired, achy, and "off". He's hoping tomorrow will be a better day for him. We're celebrating Easter on Saturday, and he wants so much, to enjoy his grandchildren and family, while they are with us.

Our Houston trip is coming up quickly. A little anxiety is beginning to creep in. We feel so out of control down there and every moment is a little scary. Mike will be having 3 scans (chest, abdomen, pelvis) meeting with 3 doctors (Radiologist, Surgeon, and Oncologist), have some xrays taken, and possibly have another biliary exchange, if needed.

Please pray that Mike will find his energy again, that he'll be well on Saturday to enjoy his family for Easter, and peace would wash over Mike and I as we prepare to head to Houston. We appreciate your thoughts and prayers very much.

"I will cast my cares on You, Lord, and You will sustain me." Psalm 55:22
