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)

Prayer Request

Just wanted to quickly let everyone know that my dad has improved enough to be transferred to a regular room at St. Mary's. They are still running tests and trying to get his levels under control. Thank you for your continued prayers.

My dad has been admitted to the ICU at St. Mary's due to complications with his liver. The best way I can explain it is that his liver is not metabolizing chemicals in his body properly and they are doing their best to get it back under control. Please pray for strength for my dad and my family during this time. It is a serious situation and we are praying for a positive outcome.

Dear Friends and Family,

We are home from the hospital, but Mike is experiencing some very scary symptoms this afternoon, and this evening. We probably should be heading back to the hospital but Mike has refused to do so. The children and I tried to persuade Mike this evening to let us call his doctor, or take him to the ER, but he repeatedly refused.

Please pray for Gods protection over Mike, that he might let us contact medical help before Tuesday (when he is scheduled to see his oncologist), and for the peace in our children's hearts, and mine, concerning this matter. We are all very upset and concerned.

Love,
Beverly
