Connect What inspired your most recent tattoo?

A celebration of life! At the time I didn’t know I would be diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer March 11th/24 I had my breast removed and 12 lymph nodes from my arm pit 6 tested positive so I was stage 3 I did 16 rounds chemo treatment and 27 rounds of radiation and a stretcher put In place so I could have an implant I stayed active at the gym and tried my best to make everyone’s lives (my sons) my family’s normal as best as i could while going through treatment

If your ink could speak, what would it say?

I love to tell a story with my tattoos I have one that represents my struggle on trying for my son for 8 years in and out of fertility clinics I have ones that represent my stepdaughters who I’ve raised since they were 5 and 3 now 23 and 21 and ones of friends I hold dear

What would you do with the $25,000?

The money I would help pay of some of my debts I struggled with during treatment and give some back to my family that helped me through my struggles with money and I would love to help the places that fund me for my medications I have to take now
