Today is a beautiful movement created to promote nonprofit fundraising efforts.

The sole purpose of The Honu Family Foundation is to provide monetary endowments, estate planning, and financial advising to families who have a parent on hospice with terminal illness, dependent children at home, and no life insurance policy in place.

Together we can ease the burden of spousal loss.

Please continue to our website to learn more, donate $5 if the cause moves you, and give us a like/share on Facebook to help spread the word.

I made this decision relatively early on in my grieving process. My late husband had fought like hell for 300 days, a brutally relentless battle against DLBC Burkitts-like Triple Hit Lymphoma. I knew from the beginning I would find myself wearing this widow badge. We cried so many tears, braved so many terrifying moments, it was cruel how much cancer had stolen from us. A life, love, friendship, plans, safety, security, time. A few months after his passing, I began to feel empowered by our difficult journey. With the girls watching my every move, I knew I needed to make this decision; find happy moments. It’s impossible to be happy all the time, no matter what you’ve been through, but as I like to remind myself, keep your chin up, so you don’t miss the rainbows that come after the storms.

As a widow with many different feelings, this truly speaks to me. You can add happy & grieving to this list as well. Daniel Tiger taught my children and I that it is possible to feel two opposing feelings at the same time. My heartbreak is where my strength originates. My vulnerability is where I find my courage. My loss will be someone else’s lifeline. I have so much love in this heart of mine and that love is helping me heal the fractures within it.
