Good Morning, I'm Kimberly McBroom.
Attorneys for Timothy McVeigh say they'll use the next three days to help the convicted Oklahoma City bomber prepare to die.
McVeigh has decided against any further appeals to spare his life.
That after a federal appeals panel in Denver rejected his request for another stay of execution.
This morning, McVeigh is expected to be taken from death row to the execution chamber at a federal prison in Indiana.
