Long time since I spoke with you guys!
I have a small Pink Orchid called Leah and although she is flowering her leaves feel soft and spongy, is there anything I could do to help them or maybe move her to another place?
Thanks for your help

Annette can you post a picture of it? Do you know what type of orchid it is?
At least a dozen grex names of various types of orchids include the name Leah, plus unknowable numbers of clonal names. We really need a picture or complete name or description of your culture or something...
But in general, soft leaves probably means drastic under-watering, or significant over-watering that killed the roots.
I do not know what type of orchid Leah is but she is a very pretty girl and I would very much like to keep her as long as possible!
Thanks for your help

It is a phalaenopsis. Is is potted in bark or moss? It takes lower light, never likes to dry but shouldn't be soaked. Check the roots to see what their condition is like
