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 ended up in the hospital emergency room again last night with some minor complications. A CT scan was done to determine the trouble. It resulted in the tube in Mike's abdomen be removed. The underlying problem is still a mystery. We would appreciate your prayers as the doctors try to figure out what happened and how to proceed.

We didn't get a whole lot of sleep last night. Mike vomited this morning but is sleeping now. I'm going to lay down and try to rest as well. We have a 4 p.m. appointment with the oncologist this afternoon to discuss things.
