Jay Leno health update comes after he was named conservator of wife Mavis' estate in April

At the time of the accident, Grossman said Leno's "burns are fairly significant, and they are a concern of which we have to take care of and make sure that he heals appropriately." Leno underwent a surgical excision and grafting procedure and needed additional procedures.

Leno's comments come months after he was declared the conservator of wife Mavis Leno's estate amid the philanthropist’s battle with dementia.

Leno, who filed his petition for the conservatorship in Los Angeles court in January, had his request granted during a hearing in April, according to court documents obtained by USA TODAY.

"The court finds from clear and convincing evidence that a conservatorship of the estate is necessary and appropriate in that (Mavis Leno) is unable to care for her financial affairs and is subject to undue influence," the minute order read. "The conservatorship is the least restrictive alternative needed for the protection of (Mavis)."
