I appreciate completely that my blog has been rather wordy of late. I know sometimes text heavy posts are sometimes hard to take in when you're tired or like me reading blogs in bed, but I've been through a bit of a tough time lately. My break was apt, it was needed; as short as it was.
I wanted to take the time to thank you all for the constant support I receive, I never expected to feel so cared for by writing a blog. But you all sincerely care and that is a rare quality to find in people, especially from some of you who I have never met. I could of sat here and wrote a load of crap, pretending that I was ok, but I really wasn't. I could be thankful that both my grandparents were ill at the same time, so as not to get over one illness and then be faced with another, but I am not.
My gramps went from being perfectly fine, blowing out candles on his Birthday cake, to a shadow of the man I know within 48 hours. After seeing him yesterday I am confident he is much better, but it's such a scary experience and put my life and all my plans in to perspective. So much so that me and Dey decided to scrap getting married in Mexico next May and have a wedding here in England. I just didn't want my family not to be there.
Look I'm babbling. Not a lot of people are comfortable spilling their life in public, I guess I just appreciate that you don't judge me.
So basically, thank you.

It's a much better idea to have your family around you for your wedding. Chin up, you'll be okay <3

I was so sorry to read that you were having a tough time at the moment and I'm so sorry to hear about your grandparents. I hope they're both back to full health soon. That sounds like a really nice idea changing your wedding; in difficult times such as what you're going through it does make you realise that the most important thing in life is to surround yourself with your family and good friends. Really hope things improve for you soon, sending love to you and your family.X

Hi Gem, I saw you shopping today but was too shy to say hello (fan-girl moment!) If I had been brave enough I would have told you how much I love reading your blog :) Hope you are OK, you sound like a very strong person. Take care xx
