Leigh’s Bio

Hello!
My name is Leigh. I have three grown children. I am happy to drive you on errands, see a movie, go shopping, walk through the park, visit museums, take a cooking class ~ or simply visit with you!

My parents are 84 and 90. My Mom has had diabetes for 24 years. I am aware of the needs of a diabetic! My folks' health started to decline. I made the very difficult decision to have them live in an Assisted Living community. But lo' and behold, their health improved so much, that they were able to move back into their own home! My parents have taught me what positive attitudes and 'not sweating the small stuff' can get a person -- A joyful life that is filled with family and friends' visits. They enjoy life (even if it involves dialysis 3x a week and lots of doctor visits!) They are positive people who appreciate simply things. It would be my pleasure to enjoy these types of things with you!
