how delightful

so i know it has been wayyyy too long since i have been on here; i have been kinda lazy with this aspect of my life (and just so busy with the other aspects). anywho, life is going delightfully well lately (in certain parts of my life anyway) and i am enjoying every minute of it. i have found one of the sweetest guys that i will probably ever meet, and he just seems to somehow keep getting sweeter. he always tries to cheer me up even when im having a really bad day and dont even feel like smiling...and somehow he succeeds. its wonderful how things can work out sometimes when you are just willing to take a chance on something :) all i have to say is wow! :))) also, i was able to sucessfully withdraw from the class that would have otherwise made my gpa drop dramatically, and im just going to retake it next semester. it is shocking how helpful the people at iupui actually can be when you need them to be haha

on the other hand, the only aspect of my life that is going pretty crappy is family stuff. not to say that my family life isnt going well because for the most part it is. i have been given so much freedom lately around home that it is greatly appreciated, and it really makes me feel like an actual adult for like the first time in my life. but the bad news is that my grandpa just told my mom yesterday that he has cancer again. he had it several years ago in his lungs, but luckily he got better and it went into remission. and we knew that he had cancer again and it was spread over a portion of his body, but we did not know the severity of it or that he actually has two types of cancer...blood cancer (which was detected a few weeks ago) and bone cancer (that he just found out about on thursday). the worst part is that the bone cancer was not detected until now and he has been informed that it is stage 4 bone cancer, which is not good at all. everyone is trying to be positive about the situation and just take the news as it comes. in situations like this positive outlooks are the best medicine, so thats what we are going for. i just hope that he can make it through this because he has always been a fighter, and even tho we were not really super close when i was a child (not as close as he and my older brother have always been) i still want to get the chance to know more about him, and for him to get the chance to be at my wedding and see my children...that is what i truly want the most! so prayers help tremendously. thanks
