Roots look fine. I am a little concerned about that dark spot with light margins. That could be fungal.

How long has it been on the leaf?  
Is there a smell?  
Does the area weep?

I think it got a sun burn. We had an 90 degree day this fall when I forgot to bring it in.

No weeping or smell

I highly recommend checking out this you tube channel. He uses all natural ingredients to revive orchids. I personally tried the onion peel method to revive mine and was shocked to see the results. Within a short amount of time, she got new healthy roots and flowered again for the first time in 2 years. It may sound strange, but I can say it worked.
