Diagnosed with ALS in 2002 at the height of her skills and fame, Chun decided early on that the disease would inspire, not rob her of, her creativity. A year after her diagnosis, she was no longer able to paint with her right hand, so she learned to use her left. When Chuns ability to paint with that hand ended in 2004, she held her brush between her teeth and painted that way. When the disease stole all mobility and Chun was completely paralyzed, she used a computer program that read her eye movements. When that even failed, she signaled her intentions with her eyes so that collaborators could execute her art work. She never stopped painting. After all, you dont paint with your hands, you paint with your heart! She passed November 19. 2008 after a six-year fight with ALS at the age of 62.
