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's abdominal drain is hanging on by a stitch.  This explains the problem with the leakage.  We think, by the way we can tape the dressing, we can hold off having anything done for this until Tuesday or Wednesday, allowing me to keep my appointment tomorrow in LR.  Mike will remain home.

Tuesday morning is Mike's speech therapy and Wednesday afternoon is the appointment with the oncologist.  Waiting for those CT results is a little frightening.

Thank you for praying for us.
