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)

Random Thoughts

Not all love stories end with "till death do us part." 

Breathe deeply and continue moving forward, anyway you can.

Do not be chased off by the pain shared and felt at the grief support group.  Keep pressing on......

God still speaks in a quiet voice to my aching heart.

Some things are worth fighting for.  Fear doesn't need to rule or conquer.

Going the second mile....can bless you as much as it blesses others.

Grace has become such an important lesson and blessing to me.  Unmerited favor and forgiveness.

With God in me, what I can't do for myself, He can do, because He lives in me.  If I can't stop worrying.....He can.  When I think I can't go on....He will show me how.

Just breathe!
