This is my first tattoo and right now the most meaningful. When I was just 7 years old I was diagnosed with Leukemia, a certain type of cancer. It was really rough on my family and myself but we got through it and I’ve been in remission for about 5 years. It’s been 7 years since I was first diagnosed and I’m 15 now. The black birds represent the struggles I’ve faced in the past during this fight and the Orange bird represents the Leukemia survivors ribbon color. The orange bird is a reminder to myself that in the end everything is going to be fine and I’ll be okay. My tattoo artist is amazing. Everyone calls her Ch-Ch-Ch-Chavez and she’s truly talented and amazing and she helped make this experience of my first tattoo memorable. ♥
