‘Only seen this in textbooks.' Pierce Co. girl's journey with rare brain malady

Kinley Harriman was 10 days old when she had a stroke. It was the summer of 2017 when her mother, Kayla Harriman, rushed her to Mary Bridge Children’s Hospital, where staff prepared to perform heart surgery. Just before Kinley went to the operating table, an ultrasound revealed something completely different: an ultra-rare brain condition called Vein of Galen Malformation (VOGM). Kinley — who lives in Bonney Lake with Kayla, her stepfather and two younger brothers — was the one person out of every 3 million with VOGM, according to a 2023 study from Duke University. Boston Children’s Hospital says the condition happens when arteries in the brain connect to veins instead of capillaries. The capillaries normally act as a buffer, slowing down blood flow; but with VOGM, bypassing the capillaries causes high-pressure blood to rush straight into the veins. VOGM is nearly 100% fatal if left untreated, according to the Journal of Neurosurgery — often leading to heart failure and severe brain injuries. Because the condition is so rare, specialized treatment is scarce, often forcing families out of state for complex surgeries — including the Harrimans, who flew across the country six times to see specialists at Boston Children’s Hospital.

There will be not one but two chances to see “KPop Demon Hunters” come to life on stage at the Tacoma Dome next year. The wildly popular movie, which debuted on Netflix in 2025, has been turned into a “a next-generation K-pop concert experience unlike anything fans have seen, heard, or felt before,” according to a press release.

King County Shrinks Vashon Septic Inspection Zone From 1,300 Parcels to Just 75 Properties

King County has dramatically scaled back a proposal that would have required septic inspections on roughly 1,300 waterfront parcels on Vashon Island, narrowing the plan to about 75 properties clustered along isolated shoreline stretches. County officials say the smaller zone can still satisfy the minimum requirements of state law while sparing hundreds of homeowners from new inspection mandates.
