Daardoor werd ik erg eenzaam. Via Herke, die ik nog ken uit mijn tijd bij Cambuur, kwam ik hier terecht. Dat was mijn redding. Het is hier altijd gezellig. Er is goede begeleiding vanuit Amaryllis en de studenten van Firda houden je jong. Ik ben bijna 90 en nog erg fit, maar er zijn hier mensen die niet zoveel meer kunnen. Ook die mensen worden hier heel goed opgevangen. Ik zou wel van de daken willen schreeuwen: kom maar hier.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ontmoeten en Meedoen Leovardia is elke dinsdagmiddag in de kantine van SL Leovardia.
