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)

First day back to work since my vacation.  Boy do I miss the peacefulness of the ocean and the breeze on my face!!!   I guess I at least have a "happy place" I can go to in my mind, to escape all the stress back here.  I'm so grateful for even that little bit of time off.  I was able to just let go and rest.

I'm considering getting some extra help with this grieving process.  There are just a few things I don't think I can resolve on my own.  Please pray that I will find the right place to put my faith and trust in, and heal.
