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)

Trying to take a Deep Breath

Well, after my disappointing news from the Social Security office, I prayed and tried to figure out what my next step should be.  My first thought was that I needed to not let fear take control over me, and just step back and take a deep breath.

I went on ahead and contacted the attorney in Little Rock, whose name I was given by someone familiar with this kind of situation.  They took some preliminary information and plan on having a caseworker call me later this afternoon, to discuss my options.  I don't know if this is the right direction to head in, or not, but I'm leaning fully on God's leading.

I would appreciate your prayers for me as I continue down this unfamiliar territory.  I know God has my best interest in mind.
