     I still have fluid in my right ear.  I have a feeling this is more than just fluid in that ear and Dr. Labby should be passing this information to Dr. Pophali at UW.

     Sleep issues are still a problem, but I had a good day.  I worked on my paint sample collage.  Put together letters to my brother, plus Dr. Labby and our Health Services Unit manager, Angela Thompson.

     What will occur when I become very sick again is they will emergency transfer me to the Dodge Correctional Institution Infirmary.  This will follow, about a month later, with a permanent transfer action by the Reclassification Committee.  During that gap I will be locked in a cell with only a TV, while my art supplies, books, and everything else is held here at RGCI in boxes.

     I am trying to get them to do the RC action prior to my physical transfer, so when I transfer my stuff does too.  My artwork. books, and such are what brings comfort into my life.  To take that away in my dying days, I believe, is cruel.

     I believe I am developing the distended abdomen that was really a problem in the second half of 2019.  I have put on weight -- I see it in my face -- but I am pretty sure this is more than that.  The belly is really sticking out, and, despite not really going overboard eating lately, it continues to grow.

     I believe the disease is slightly more along than it was in 2019.  Then they gave me thirty to sixty days in late October.  Which may give me a  rough time frame.
