I wanted to give you an update on rodeo clown Leon Coffee. There was such an outpouring of love and support yesterday when I put out the request for prayers. I can't thank you enough. I have always believed in the power of prayer and believe even more now.

I am happy to let you know that the doctors and Leon have made some great progress. They are getting the meningitis under control and Leon is now able to speak. He is still in ICU at North Central Baptist Hospital in San Antonio. He is improving but far from out of the woods yet. Please keep the prayers coming. They are working but many more are needed. Keep them coming so we can see a full recovery. Hang in there Leon we've got your back.
