I wanted to share this picture because of a conversation I was having with nostr:npub1tlacuxmtv2wqud9qz0ujnr4mqavmnz3ayspfj93jr40tgf2mvu6seax3y7. It's hard to describe the tattoo and all the ways it has helped me.

I'm not a tattoo enthusiast by any means. I look at it now as an emotional scar, but when I designed it the main focus was functional. I thought about it for a year before going through with the decision to final have it put on my body.

I'll probably write a full blog post on the subject sometime this year.

Shortly after I got the tattoo I made themedicaltattoo.org so folks could have a starting point to do the same if they found themselves struggling with a severe health situation.

Please take time before getting a tattoo of any kind. Getting a tattoo should be a decision made with long-term time preference.
