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)

You Will Restore Me

"LORD,  Your servant, Job, felt he was in the land of the deepest night, of the dark shadow and disorder, where even the light is like darkness. (Job 10:22) You restored someone who knew a much bleaker darkness than mine.  You will restore me, too, if I will let You."    -Beth Moore

"And you know you are in a pit when you've lost vision...because pits have no windows.  In that darkness, we can no longer see that may have once been obvious to us.  In that darkness, we can no longer see things that may have once been obvious to us.  Also, the close confinement of a pit exhausts us with the endless echo of self-absorption.  We can't see out, so we turn our sights in, and that nearsightedness breeds hopelessness." -Beth Moore

"For I am convinced that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, or height, nor death, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separates us from the love of God, which is Christ the Lord."   Romans 8:38-39

As some of you know, Glenn and I are facing a new challenge so we definitely would appreciate your prayers.

Anne Murray- "Broken Hearted Me"

 
 
Every now and then I cry
Every night you keep stayin' on my mind
All my friends say I'll survive
It just takes time
 
But I don't think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No, I don't see how it can if it's broken all apart
A million miracles could never stop the pain
Or put all the pieces together again
No, I don't think time is gonna heal this broken heart
No, I don't see how it can while we are still apart
 
Songwriters
GOODRUM, RANDY
