Wow! What made you decide to do that tatoo? Is it for CF recognition, so that people ask why you did it? I think it is awesome!

I wanted to get a tattoo that would always reflect my life. Haveing CF has made me who I am, it will always be a major part in my life. I cant think of anything else that has had such a large impact in my life.

Colin,
Way to go that is cool. Have you had a transplant? And where do you live? Your house looks nice. What kind of dog do you have?
Thanks,
kelli

Thanks, I live in San Diego, and I have a Doxin named Ramona. No TX for me, when I'm helthey my lungs are 70% of norm, when I get sick they are in the 50% range. I know that docs frown on people getting tattoos after tx's, so I wanted to get it now. I will put up mor photos in 2 weeks when my next sesion is.

Colin,
I can't believe you could sit through all of that pain. I have 3 tattoos, all pretty small. You're tough to go through that and I love that people will ask you about it and you will have a chance to inform them on CF.
I am the one who wrote a little earlier. I know my post sounded like a child, I'm actually 27 but I had just painted my fingernails and I wanted to keep it short, so I didn't get paint on my keyboard.
