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)

The procedure was a success. 1000 cc's was drained off Mike's abdomen today. His stomach looks as though he could handle much more being drained, but they wanted to be careful about losing good fluid that is important to keep things working well. Mike's belly is a little sore and he is resting, but before he went to bed he had me make him 3 scrambled eggs with cheese, 4 pieces of thick, center cut bacon, and a half of a piece of homemade bread toast. :) Yay!!!!!!!!!

Thank you for your continued prayers.
