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)

Seventy-five days.  You would think the pain would be subsiding a little.  Yet, I feel as though it all took place just yesterday.  I'm as frustrated with my reaction, as much as I am with the situation.  It is as though my heart has been asleep and is just now waking up, and realizing Mike is gone. I have had some really tough days this week.  There are periods when I seem to be doing better than others.  But this past week, has been absolutely miserable.  My faith is strong, but the battle has been long, and I'm worn out.

I appreciate your continued love, support, and prayers.
