     I am transferring.  Either to the Oshkosh Correctional Institution, or the Racine  Correctional Institution. Sometime next week.

     I am nervous.

     If it is the former, that is a downgrade for me.  It is closer to my parents, but not close enough with these COVID-19 restricted one hour visits.  If it is the latter,  then that puts me less than thirty minutes from my parents house.

     I also worry about them taking my open tubes of paint when I transfer again.  I just started laying oil paint on canvas the day prior.

     The tumor on my neck is definitely growing.  It is starting to appear like a flying buttress again.  I should see Dr. Pophali in less than a week.  We could very well be back to palliative care from here on out.  I exceeded what I expected on longevity, and just feeling good.  But for some reason my limbs have become terribly heavy the last three days.  Especially my forearms. Especially the right.

     Austin Norman, RN called me down to HSU this afternoon.  They received the results on my urine  sample and switched me ciprofloxacin to nitrofurantoin.  He said the latter will better help treat my infection.
