Hey everyone! I'm Leah. If you're here, you most likely know me, and I invite you to click on the link below to read more about my struggles, accomplishments, and hopes in regard to my health and life, but I'll also take a moment to summarize my story on this page.


Thank you, thank you, thank you! And all the best to you this holiday season. :)

In summary, I have suffered with many different symptoms and health conditions throughout my lifetime, and currently, I am struggling to move forward in life because I feel stuck in a state of mediocre health.

I'm very excited to say I've found several things along the way that help me feel better, and I've even thrown one of my autoimmune diseases into remission (woo!!!), but, managing multiple chronic diseases is extremely costly, and now I'm asking for what I need so I can pursue my well-being and not merely "get by" each day while watching myself slowly decline.

I want to move forward in life occupationally, relationally, and environmentally (in that, I want to gain health-related confidence, and once well enough to commit to a steady job, an income that allows me to move out of my parent's home. (Living at home has made me feel safe in case a severe low blood sugar was to occur, and it's proven to be helpful when I've had physical limitations arise from rheumatoid arthritis flares).

Health is a gift. I also believe health is a right. Health is the key to experiencing life - the key to connecting with others, evolving, having fun, being able to truly relax, and being able to advocate for people in need. Without health, we have lots, but we also have very little.

My goals in 2024 are to continue embracing my most joyful and authentic self, gain control of my type 1 diabetes, halt the progression of my rheumatoid arthritis, pursue therapies to regain lost muscle tone and restore proper body alignment/functioning, begin working in my chosen field, and move into a place I can call my own.

Health is the foundation for everything, and I will be grateful to tears (and dancing!) for all financial support along the way.

Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
~Leah
