Leona’s Story

Site created on February 9, 2020

Welcome to our CaringBridge website. We are using it to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.


Leona went to visit her Arizona home for an anticipated six week trip January 13th but fell ill on the 21st with upper and lower respiratory bronchial infections and was hospitalized. She began to recover and was transferred to rehab on February 1st.  However, she quickly declined and was transferred back to the hospital via ambulance on the 6th. 


She is struggling with multiple issues, including congestive heart failure, COPD, leaky heart valve, and GI issues.  She is in pain and tired.  We will update as able with any changes.
