    Getting a tattoo

    I have cancer and it's a nasty one. So far I am still in remission but it could come back tomorrow. So I have made a bucket list.

    One of the things I have put in my bucket list is getting a tattoo. I've thought of getting one for years but have been putting it off.

    Today I decided to get one. I've been looking at different celtic tattoos and have come down with two that I really like.

    Just wondering what the consensus is for the one I should get.

    Do you have any in mind? Are there pictures or anything?

    Hi Bruce,

    I can only agree with Ramsay - this is your life, not a dress rehearsal. You only get the one shot. My cousin was in a similar position about 10 years ago, when both his kidneys started to fail. He was not considered for a transplant. He went for 3 tattoos - one on each upper arm - and one that only his wife and doctor will ever see. He is still with us.

    Never underestimate the power of positive thought and never turn your face to the wall. Stay strong.

    Regards

    Chas

    perhaps "F#&@ Cancer" ?

    but that might be tempting the fates, but it could also be good mental combat as well.

    I vote both as well. Half way through gettting your first you'll want to get another one anyway. At least you already know what it'll be!

    Stay strong brother. Prayer and positive thinking can do wonders.

    Look at them both side-by-side and pick the one that embodies you the most.
