Body & Memory
A collection shaped by embodiment, healing, survival,
and the body’s memory of change.
Body & Memory gathers stories and art shaped by illness, trauma, healing, bodily change, survival, and the forms of memory the body carries. It holds work from the ways change is lived, remembered, and understood through the body itself.

Quiet Amidst the Chaos

Body & Memory | Writing
This was written as a Facebook post 19 days after I had triple bypass surgery due to all 3 coronary arteries being severely occluded. These are my memories from the 3 days leading up to surgery. I have never been more scared or more calm. I don’t know how I’m still here, but I am.
