Well I can assure you they are 54yrs old, been through unspeakable misery and immense joy and have been well creamed and could tell the most amazing stories. And I will take that as a compliment.

been tattooed nearly all over worst iv felt was the spot just under the sternum where like the rib cage goes its separate ways and there is no bone just a gap, same deal as the top of the sternum like the gap near your collar bones.

it rather resembles my grandmother. She was divinely beautiful in her old age. As most women are.

Hey GW that looks really great! I have four tats, small ones on each shoulder, a fairly large lower back piece and a morning glory vine around my navel. Lower back piece was a fairly painful journey! Your tat will be a nice reminder of your cancer free celebration

That's what I thought I have wanted this particular one for a while but I wanted to wait until I got my results, you have enough needles when you have chemo and I couldn't have faced any more . But when I knew I was okay I thought right lets get inked! I know the guy personally who did the tattoo he was fully booked as they all are here in my town but he knew about my results so did it for me without the wait, he also knew I'd had a blood transfusion during treatment and when he did the tattoo it bled quite a lot and I said to him you've made me bleed and he replied its not your blood anyway which amused me. He is totally covered in them and he's got piercings everywhere, quite a scary looking guy really but a nice guy.Hey GW that looks really great!

Well my mum was a beautiful mother and grandmother I used to look at her as a child and hoped I would look like her, and everyone tells me I do she had beautiful skin and needed little help to keep it looking that way, so that's where I get my young looking hands from lol unfortunately my body is somewhat dragging behind although its not bad seeing as its been quite mutilated by surgery over the years but its best kept covered up.

Dont say that........damn there went my fantasy !
I am so sorry, didn't they put in a central port for you? If they didn't and you ever have to go through anything similar, ask about one.

No Annie they didn't but that was mainly my fault they did mention that they could but I thought I would be okay without one, How wrong was I! Half way through the chemo my veins went like lead they struggled every week to get blood and every three weeks to administer chemo. It was sheer misery I had bloods taken every week for 22 weeks and a cannula put in every three and a blood transfusion in the middle of it all. I know if their is a next time that's the first thing I will ask for, I begged them to take blood from my feet because my arms were so sore but they wouldn't eventually they had to take it from my groin not an experience I will forget in a hurry. But thanks for the advice.
No it's not your fault. They had a responsibility to tell you why at length. Red death (as we refer to Doxorubicin), is a sclerosing agent. At the minimum they should have explained PICC lines and central ports. Next after you started sclerosing they should have offered (pushed), again. I swear to god what passes for medicine today, there are better veterinarians.No Annie they didn't but that was mainly my fault they did mention that they could but I thought I would be okay without one, How wrong was I!

Oh and I am really happy there are great vets! one of the finest pulled my dog out from poisoning. My $1,000.00 pound puppy LOL
Oh and gurl doing a course of chemo sans port! You earned that tatoo, you are one tough hombre! LOL (in the best sense of the word).

Yep, that's a painful spot. I've got about a cm in that same area tattoo'd on my left wrist, out of the entire thing, that part hurt the most!
Probably already answered this, but was there any reason for getting it?

I had seen this particular tattoo on the net sometime ago but with everything going on regarding my health I decided to leave it until I knew what was happening, as I said before you have enough needles when you have treatment to put myself through more. However when my results came back okay I thought it apt to have this tattoo which is the symbol of the key to life.
