Leah would be turning 22 on March 12, 2023 but on May 8, 2021 this world changed forever. Leah was an amazing daughter, granddaughter, niece, sister, cousin, friend, and roommate. To know Leah was to love her. She had the most beautiful blue eyes and red hair. She had the most contagious smile and laugh. Leah had the most energy in any room she walked into and you could always catch her dancing. She was a nursing student at Bloomsburg University and she would be graduating this upcoming May alongside her friends and roommates. Leah wasn’t diagnosed with VEDS until eleven months after she unexpectedly passed away. Leah is the main reason we want to be able to spread awareness about VEDS and also donate to be able to get more research done about VEDS.
