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)

Oh....don't let the sweet names above fool you!

I think I own the most expensive Cocker Spaniels in the world!!!  I can't get in and out of the animal clinic without spending at least a $100 each time...which is more often than I would like to admit.  Between their special vension/potato diet for allergies, to their antibiotics for Staph infections, their allergy shots, and to whatever injuries they can cause to themselves..........it's like an open cash drawer there! 

Mike was right!!!  A mut would have been cheaper!
