Leesa has lived a life filled with limitations for more many years.  On her 37th birthday, she suffered the tragedy of a brain hemorrhage caused by a rare, vascular disorder known as an AVM/CA that left her unable to talk, read or write.  But the need to express is a powerful force. With strong faith, a grateful attitude, holding onto her hope, therapy, and years of relentless research and testing, Leesa overcame her physical limitations.  Even though she still deals with limitations from allergies and chemical sensitivities, she filled the promise of a blank page with the beauty her soul never stops observing in the world around her.  "The poems in this collection are a compilation of my life experiences," Wheeler writes. "During my life, I've found my most memorable moments have been blessings discovered from facing challenges." Her words transform tragedy into powerful lessons from which to grow.  From the joy of turning seasons to the people and times that call for deep contemplation and thankfulness, each piece delves deep into intriguing topics that invite and inspire.  A refreshing, inspiring experience for all poetry lovers, Melodies From Within releases an irrepressible song of joy from one woman's soul. Her words of love are skillfully written and seem to dance off the page!  So step inside, into her heart, and listen to the Melodies From Within… perhaps you’ll be reminded of the song in yours!

In November 2004, Leesa launched HealthyHighway.org, a website whose pages are filled with information for a healthy home, body, mind, and spirit ~ a healthier home and a healthier you!  HealthyHighway was created as a place to share my knowledge about living healthy and living well despite the obstacles I face everyday. I've learned a lot from living with limits on a daily basis since I live with allergies to foods, airborne allergens/pollens, and multiple chemicals. I believe that excellent health ~ physical, spiritual, emotional, relational, mental ~ is found along the journey and is not just the destination. I've discovered that you can live well with limits. My goal is to share what I learned with you so that you live your happiest, healthiest life ever ~ your best life!
