Enter For FreeMy most recent piece is still in progress, but it tells the story of my son growing into the man he is while surviving the chaos of my abuse. It’s about his strength, he’s endured things no kid should, and how we fought through it together. It’s not just his growth—it’s our survival. This tattoo is for the pain, the fight, and the bond that keeps us going. It’s real, it’s raw, and it means everything.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?If my ink could speak, it would say: ‘She’s been through hell, but still chose love. She raised two beautiful kids with everything she had, despite a dark past that tried to break her. Every line and shade is a reminder that she survived, kept going, and gave her children the light she never had. This isn’t just ink—it’s a voice, a vow, and a legacy of strength.
What would you do with the $25,000?At 45, I’m trying to rebuild a life after surviving two abusive relationships and a second divorce. I’d use the $25,000 to finally give my kids and me a stable home—a place of our own, where they can lay their heads in peace. We’ve lived through fear and chaos for too long. This would be our first real step toward healing, safety, and finally having something of our own.
