8:12 am - Just sitting here writing a couple of pastors about standing up to this death penalty and exchanging evil for evil. I finished one letter and started another. I want to write at least 3 of them today. At 1:30pm I have a call out to see the psychologist who's trying to help me get my recreation back. For now I'll get back to writing and see what else comes of today.
12:01 pm - Just finished eating. I've written 3 pastors so far. Go see Byrd in about an hour and then come back and workout.
2:56 pm - Just got back from my call out. I heard Cab is in bad shape. He's been moved to R-Dorm and they are saying he will not make it back here to P-Dorm, that cancer is fixing to get him. I hated to hear that. I really like Cab, maybe a miracle will happen and he will pull through.
5:30 pm - Just waiting on showers. I didn't accomplish anything today.

I personally have spent years in lock down, never on death row, for sure it's not a nice place to be. After reading your word's. I have come to the conclusion, you are keeping your self focused on something you believe in. There are those that also believe in your cause as well. But might not share the same conviction as you do. The fact that you have a routine everyday speaks loudly that you are doing your time and not letting it do you! Thanks for sharing with us. Keep your chin up!
