Last summer, when a group of us were going through the last of Arta's papers and files, we were thinking about how to share and archive family stories/histories.
At one point, we had come across a picture of Arta's heart, back in 2017 when she had a stent put in during a heart attack.
The photo was quite a thing, and we wrote up a post about rivers and veins. Here is a link to that post: https://larchhaven.blogspot.com/2025/08/rivers-and-streams-or-artas-coronaries.html
Back then, we had promised to tell the stories around the image of Arta's heart attack. We recorded Catherine's story (on August 4, 2025), but I only just got the video uploaded. If you want 11 minutes of fun and mayhem (everything ended well, and we got an additional 4 years with our mom), then follow the link below.

My heart did not race as fast as I thought it might, rehearing the story of "the heart attack." That said, "I think I will go take my blood pressure now.
