Health Update on Coach Leon Black

Update on Former Basket Ball Coach Leon Black from his son Chuck Black

Billy,

Dad has been in the hospital struggling with health issues mainly related to kidney and heart function for the last 10 days. He is still in the hospital, but we hope he improves enough to come home soon.

He needs a spirit boost from those he loves. Any ideas on what we can do to support him?

Chuck Black

I am going to move his status to the health watch section on the TLSN website tomorrow. No link as yet
