The first ever F*Cancer tattoo !

Story Image: 

Never in a million years did I ever think I would walk into a tattoo parlor and get a tat, let alone write up a review on my experience. The fact that I'm in Vegas for my 40th birthday celebration with a ton of friends, strange as it may seem, had nothing to do with my decision. The truth is I've been looking for about 2 months now for a good place to get it done.

My whole experience from the moment I walked in there was excellent. Believe it or not, I've never seen an episode of Inked and I had no idea until my friend told me that Hart and Huntington was where the reality show was filmed. It didn't have any real influence on my decision but in retrospect I think it's actually kinda cool!!!

Jessica at the reception was friendly and inviting and made me feel welcome. It being my first time, she was more than generous with helping me. Jime was awesome!! Friendly, interesting and totally cool. I also learned that Jime had a special connection to cancer as well. I won't get into any details but I was really glad he was my artist. It was an honour to have him do it!! Thanks Jime!!

Prior to my diagnosis last July there was nothing that I thought I'd like painted on my body permanently for the rest of my life. But during my stay in the hospital for my first round of chemo my partner Brent showed me a bracelet by a local Vancouver artist and cancer survivor named Susan Fiedler. The bracelet is sterling silver and engraved with two words that have become my mantra.....Fuck Cancer. As soon as I saw it I knew I'd found my tattoo and yesterday Jime at H&H made it a permanent part of me!! Susan herself provided the artwork so that it would be an exact representation of the bracelet. Thanks so much Susan!!!!! Big HUG!!!!!!!
