TMD Tales - Stories of Tattoo Removal Posting

When I was 16, I decided to tattoo my family coat of arms, which is very old and has a ton of history behind it, on my ankle.  Of course my parents where upset.  I had definitely gone behind their backs. But I thought that it really meant something to me.  In any event by the time I was 25, I wanted it off.  It would bother me when I would dressed up.   My mom and I where driving down to Los Angeles a couple of days ago, and I told her that I was having it removed and had an appointment later in the afternoon.  (Obviously my mom and I are much closer now, than back when I was a teenager.)   Anyways, all of a sudden she pulls out her 18K gold ring which is engraved with our family coat of arms.  It is an exact replica of my tattoo.   She wore the ring for 30 years with out taking it off.   And she says here “This is yours know.”   I almost started crying.
