Sad
Ian's grandfather died of cancer a couple of weeks ago. I've only just found out today. He assured me that he was ok after a couple of days, and considered calling me but decided not to. Which I do understand - I just hope that he and his family have some good luck coming their way soon. They truly deserve it after the last couple of years.
It seems to be one endless uphill strugle for them all at the moment, and regardless of the past and the history between Ian and I, I hope he knows I'll always be there if he needs me. I can't stop loving and caring someone because things don't work out - it happens and its shitty, but ideally you can remain on friendly terms and hopefully still help each other through bad times.
Ian truly did help me through a very difficult time, and I hope he can say the same for me. At the end of the day, I don't think with our combined problems we'd have worked long term even if it hadn't been for alcohol - he's a really sweet caring giving person but we had to work SO hard at our relationship, constantly, because we were so different from each other.
Anyway, I'm rapidly moving off the subject here. Basically I feel a little of Ian and his family's pain, and I send them my sympathy. I'll be here for any and all of them if they want to get in touch. I love you guys - you were all part of my extended family, and I miss you.
