An odd thing happened; I was gleefully rewriting a Leafman book when I had a panic attack. I stumbled up to bed, relaxed and was glad my heart was on my left side. From the inside out, I hurt on my right side so I knew it wasn’t a heart attack. As I lay trying to relax fast I thought I’d better check though, make sure my heart hadn’t migrated to the wrong side. (concentrating on relaxing; now there’s a good thought)

I rushed down stairs, “I’m DEAD,” I told John. “I felt for a heartbeat and there wasn’t one. Or maybe my breasts were in the way.”

The pictures below are drawn in crayola crayon. I scrubbed in the color so hard it stretched the paper into waves so I backed them with cardboard and pressed bunches of straight sewing pins through both surfaces. The heads of the pins are on the picture surface and glitter silver in Nude Wedding Dress, and are gold colored pins on Bride in Blood Shoes..I bent the sharp pointed  ends into the back side of the cardboard.  nancymauerman.com
