FATHER TROY's TRANSPLANT JOURNAL.........#6

Saturday, Day 6 of my transplant journal, has been T- Minus 10 Days and Counting to My Kidney Transplant Day, Tues. Aug. 25, at the Mayo Clinic Arizon, in Phoenix. It has been a necessary day of rest and relaxation, after a very busy, non stop week of pre-transplant activities. The week ahead will be even busier for me battening down the hatches before heading to the high desert for at least two months. I went home to South Sacramento for a few hours and went to lunch with a priest friend. Returning to Presentation for 4 o'clock Confessions and the 5:30 p.m. Mass, I am mulling over what to have for dinner. I will preside at 8 a.m. Sunday Mass here at Presentation then I will head over to St. Philomene's for the remainder of their 9 o'clock Mass and my announcement of the kidney transplant..........Fr.
