Folks, I just
got three tattoos. Yessir, I have now joined the ranks of other radiation
patients who have a connect-the-dots deal on their bodies, so death rays can be
lined up correctly. Okay, they’re
probably called something else, but the idea is that their machinery can shoot
a laser beam in exactly the right place to kill cancer. So… killer rays? Same idea.
The tattoos
look like a little pen dot. One on my chest, and one on each side. So you’re
probably wondering why I’m such a whiner about this. But here’s what I did not
know: Tattoos hurt like crazy!
I thought a little needle would
go in for just a split second. It would be almost painless, just a tiny pinch.
WRONG. Granted I have extremely sensitive skin and possibly a second set of
nerves (this is the case with my daughter, so I’m just assuming??), but HOLY
MOLEY, it was worse than a bee or a wasp sting, two things I have experienced
multiple times.
I asked the guy doing it how on
earth people have giant dragons and tigers all over their bodies. Do they not
have nerve endings?
I tell you, the next time I see
someone with a bunch of tattoos I’m going to ask them if they had to take pain
meds or just what, before and after the procedure.
Or, maybe I’m just a big baby.
It’s probably that. Nevermind.
Hey,
have you checked out my Youtube Mom channel lately? One of the most popular
ones is about 10 uses for cream of tartar. Although I don’t think it can help
with tattooing pain.
