My most recent tattoo I have had done is the word Warrior. It’s placed right above my scar on the right side of my chest, it is also place there to be right above my heart. The scar came from having cancer at a young teenager. They have to put a port in my chest when giving chemotherapy, and above my heart since I was battling heart failure, that fight ended in November 2023 when I received a heart transplant.
If your ink could speak, what would it say?I think it would speak to my passion for life. Tell me to fight, to really live, and find passion.
What would you do with the $25,000?I think I would like to take my daughter on a trip. Pay off bills and just live, fun, hard, crazy, and spontaneously. I want to get out and enjoy the life I have fault so hard for.
