Leighton is going back to a normal room

The doctors got the results back from tests done to Leighton's rash. It is a form of the chicken pox virus, but it is not contagious through the air. So, they are moving Leighton back to his old room and he will be getting back to therapy tomorrow. This is good news! Leighton had been stuck in his ICU room for five days. The only thing he found to do was time trials around his bed in the wheel chair. His best time was 13.2 seconds.

Leighton is very fortunate to have so many great people behind him. His girlfriend and dad have not left his side since the crash. His mom and sister had to go home to get some things, but they are coming back. His mechanic is an awesome guy who stayed for the first two weeks and is now driving Leighton's truck from southern California to Denver. Leighton also has had a lot of people come visit him and is thankful for each one of them.

Leighton said he is very thankful for all the continued support. He is so glad for the emails and letters. If you want to send him an e-mail, the supportll27@hotmail.com has been fixed. If you want to send him a card he is in the Craig Hospital in Denver, CO room 302.

  1. Just wanted to say that I hope the Merchant Account information was correct for the purchase of a wonder Tee Shirt that Brothers Industries has Online. It was the least I could to in order to show my Support! Get well Leighton. Oh yea, I sent an email with a photo of you at the OMC 4-Stroke National event in Boise, Idaho. Hope you get a copy. With respect, Don Schneider
