An artist sketches her way through a heart condition in a notebook chock-full of evocative images and emotions.
"In 2008, after recovering from breast cancer, New York artist Vicki Behm contracted what seemed to be a bad flu. But symptoms persisted beyond the usual time. She eventually found herself in an ER, gasping for breath. Then she was diagnosed with a disease she had barely heard of.
This is Vicki’s visual diary, annotated with her words, from her symptoms to her hopeful new life with a weakened heart."
