I remember your positive reaction to someone's post about getting a tattoo a short while ago, but I just dismissed it in my mind as "something nice to say". Wow, Jeanette - you did it! x

I am thinking of getting a phoenix tattooed on my arm. It is the symbol of strength and rising from adversity xx

that sound quite complicated, but would look great, I'm not that brave, 30 mins under the needle was long enough for me, good luck, and enjoy your travelling! Jeanette xx

Love it! What a great tattoo. I have just become well enough to follow my dreams. Before OC I followed my dream of doing lots of travelling, and recently have felt well enough to travel again. I just got back from a fantastic holiday in New Orleans and the Caribbean. Now I'm planning a trip to Australia during the summer. I am not letting OC get in my way!! Good for you following your dreams! Kim xo

Not usually a fan of tattoos but this is lovely and a fitting mantra for all of us! I might just be tempted ... !

I'd like to get my hair dyed an interesting colour but on 4th line chemo I think it would probably all fall out!

Good for you Jeanette πŸ‘

I have thought of having teal streaks in my hair, but think it would be difficult getting a good colour, but I love my tattoo!! xx
