Learn MoreI was having horrible side effects from my MS treatment and ready to give up. I was depressed and declining. My 22 year old son text me that 'you are the strongest woman I know. You have beat things that would have made others crumble. But I still need you Mom so promise me you will keep fighting until the very end.' He tattooed 'until the very end' on my inner forearm where the infusion needle is placed so that while I am getting each infusion I have a constant reminder of my reason to fight.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?All of my ink is a testament to a struggle that I overcame in the past. Each one a battle scar that reminds me of my strength. My ink reminds us that it is in our weakness that we find our strength. We all have faced struggles, we all have our own story to tell. We should wear our scars with pride, because it's proof that we are stronger than whatever tried to break us.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would invest into my children so that I could make sure that I left them with something. I would also take a trip with them, my kids have been my strength and my reason for being and I would want to celebrate how far we came and enjoy our time together
