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)

Tomorrow

Tomorrow will require a lot of strength and courage for Mike and I.  It will be a day full of doctor appointments in LR.  Mike has very little energy, and we have very little time anymore to do the routine, so we're needing to use one day to accomplish a lot.  I'm flaring again, so simply moving about is pretty painful and tiring.

Tomorrow morning Mike will have a full torso CT scan in LR. at 9:30 a.m.  Then we'll need to make two other appointments for myself, keeping us in LR for about five hours.  So the day will be lengthy and a challenge.

We would appreciate your prayers for a good report and for everything we'll need to get through the day.  You are such a blessing to us and we are so grateful for your love, encouragement and support.
