Could be a sign of dehydration. Are the roots OK?

ALL the leaves ? or a few? on older growth? or new?
pix are helpful if you can post them, as well as describing how you care for the plant

are the yellowing leaves the side bract foliage, or from the top of the pbulb?
all will eventually yellow and drop, but the side bract foliage will be shed much sooner than the leaves at the top of pbulbs - hopefully your is just shedding old foliage

The top of the pbulb. Also, the pbulbs are shrivelled.

I think even a newer leaf is turning yellow. I'm so sad.

sounds like the plant is dehydrated - either from underwatering, or overwatering causing the roots to rot
tips for posting pix here: http://www.orchidboard.com/community...ng-photos.html
pix of plant and roots if possible would be helpful
