16 August 2021

 


     I still have not received my property.  Most of the other guys I came with have, as have the guys who came in Friday after me.  So I think I should receive it in the next two days.  I hope tomorrow.

     I was on the softball diamond again and have all but nothing left.  I can throw the ball about sixty feet, with nothing on it.  I do not move very well either.

     Since July 31st I have noticed a major physical loss of ability and energy.  I am heading on that increasing spiral to death.

     It is disappointing.

     I saw Dr. Patrick Murphy today.  He said they will not transfer me to the DCI infirmary.  When the time comes I will be placed on the long term care unit here to be cared for until death.

     No more transfers.

     I am reading Mary Roach's Stiff: The Curious Life of Cadavers, and I had it with me.  He kept on looking at the book and must think I am some really morbid freak.  That is funny.

     It was the only worthwhile book in the units collection.  Plus it is interesting and witty.  Plus I do not have this sanctimonious belief of the human body after death.  We are just a sack of molecules at that point.

     I just hope some of mine end up as part of a plum tree in my parents back yard after I am dead.
