MY 9TH SUNDAY AFTER TRANSPLANT A DAY OF SUCCESSFUL CELEBRATION.........

Having successfully presided at my first public Mass in 9 weeks on Saturday evening, Sunday morning brought further success. After watching three of the network Sunday shows, Meet the Press, This Week, and Face the Nation, I went over to the church at the conclusion of the 8 am Mass to greet the Presentation parishioners. After spending forty five minutes with them over coffee, to have breakfast and then returned to the church to concelebrate the 10:30 am Mass, with Father Paul Ricks. Following Mass and the coffee social, Fr. Paul prepared Sunday lunch for both of us for the second week in a row. I spent the afternoon e-mailing and social networking until dinner and the evening news and then it was time for, "60 Minutes", a short nap, and then my favorite new tv series of this season, "Three Rivers", the CBS drama about transplants in a Pittsburgh, PA hospital. I have my weekly fasting labs in the morning between 7-8 a.m., so I am making it an early night.........Peace + Prayers in Jesus the Christ, Fr. Troy
