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 continues to feel well. He is still doing physical therapy three mornings a week and he enjoys his shop at least a couple of hours during the day. The Lyrica drug he added a few weeks ago, definitely is improving the Neuropathy pain in his feet and hands. We were told by our oncologist that this drug has a way of accumulating benefits, so Mike may even feel better as time goes on.
Mike is anxious to begin his treatment on Tuesday. He's ready to kick the tumor around a little more and make it feel unwelcome.
Thank you for your thoughts and prayers.
