What inspired your most recent tattoo?

My last tattoo reads i am love to remind myself that I can allow myself to love and be loved and to be open-hearted and embrace love despite a very long and verbal abusive relationship that unfortunately it took me having a heart attack to finally leave the relationship.

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

It's a reminder of my journey through life. Especially the last few tattoos are memories that I am finally able to create along the way without feeling isolated.

What would you do with the $25,000?

It would definitely help my younger son and I get a place of our own. When I left my son's father we had to move in with my older son which was only supposed to be temporary but it's turned in to 4 years now and I would love to just give us a place of our own.
