DECEMBER 31, 2011...........BACK ONLINE AFTER A CHRISTMAS WEEK LAPSE...........

I  am back online blogging again after a week's absence, from Christmas Eve unti today New Year's Eve, due to very severe pain in my right right core and leg amputation down to the stump.  Aline of infection developed again in my lower back, putting pressure on my right spine lumbar, requiring after thorough examination and consultation, a second back surgery on Thursday.  It was less of a surgical procedure than in June, and the pain is decreasing quicker than before.  My thoughts and prayers are with all my Our Lady of Lourdes parishioners, caregivers, volunteers, and friends, for your spiritual and personal support and solidarity at this time.  May the Blessings of this Christmas Season, and the Holiness of the New Year we are preparing to begin, be you and yours in abundance, as our my Prayers and Best Wishes for your Happiness and Good Health...........Fr,  Troy
