Over the weekend, in addition to the home grown vegetables and fruits the OLOL rectory is being abundantly gifted with, during these days of summer, a parishioner who is an excellent cook, and who in years past was the cook for Monsignor Terwilliger, and Father Madigan, here at OLOL, and went on to be a cook at the Ellis Senior Center, at Immaculate Conception Church, in Oak Park - Connie Matthews, who is also serving as one of my antibiotic infusion therapy volunteers, - cooked and brought me some of her wonderful Barbequed Chicken, Ribs, macaroni salad, and green beans. Like her Chicken and Dumplings last month, the BBQ, which I truly love, was brilliant and made for a most delicious weekend of dining at home.....This Thursday, August 11, I have an appointment with Dr. Randy Martin, at Sutter Roseville Medical Center, for which I am still in need of a ride. My appointment is scheduled for 9:45 a.m., just after I am connected to my morning antibiotic treatment, as I take the portable pump with me. I also have an appointment following the first one at Sutter-Roseville, with Clint, at Anchor Prosthetics, on Auburn Boulevard and Watt Avenue, immediately following in the 11 o'clock hour, so a driver who can take me to both appointments, would be best. If you are available on Thursday, between 9:15 a.m. -12:15 p.m., I can use your assistance as my driver.
I am awaiting the weekly visit from my home health care nurse, Susan Boyle, at 7 p.m., and then my infusion therapy volunteers, Bill and Ruby Shepherd, at 8 p.m. .....Also today, my 2nd Annual Evaluation Itinerary, reviewing my Kidney Transplant, at the Mayo Clinic Arizona, in Phoenix, August 23-26, arrived today, so I am in the throes of arranging taking a train to and from Phoenix that week, and finding a traveling companion to go along with me, on this first post amputation journey, outside of Sacramento...........Can You ? Will You ? Help Me ? Fr. Troy
