I use my ink as decor for my pale, redheaded skin that I was always teased for while growing up. Every tattoo has deep meaning to me.

I got a Pennsylvania Dutch Hex sign from the same Pennsylvania county my ancestors are from. Due to suffering from Fibromyalgia and Cyclic Vomiting Syndrome, I have to be more careful when healing tattoos. Unfortunately this one got cellulitis and it needs to be fixed.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?My ink would say I’ve lived a life worth remembering, and I love family, color, animals and whimsy.
What would you do with the $25,000?Donate ALL of it (after taxes) to a Cat Rescue Charity (Barker Rescue). I have 8 cats, the most recent of which I adopted from a Cat Rescue (Barker Rescue) in South Carolina. Chester Cheetah Pants is a once-in-a-lifetime therapy kitty who survived getting hit by a car when he was 1 month old. He lays with me & it helps comfort me when I’m struggling with chronic pain from Fibromyalgia. He still has a Traumatic Brain Injury, but he’s amazing. I want to give back to the Rescue Org.
