Nursing and tattoos

Tattoos I don't mind - wouldn't get one but I don't mind them. Can't say the same for body piercings though - especially those in and around the mouth. I just can't stop staring at the rotten thing and it annoys me because I usually like to watch someones eyes when they are talking to me. Can't help it! I find myself focusing on the istud/ring whatever rather than the person's face.

Tattoos, even facial tatoos such as Mouri's have is no problem for me.

NO don't have and never would Guess the age is showing!!! They are just way to perment for me. If you got tired of it removing is very difficult and expensive. I have seen some very beautiful ones but is just not for me

I have one. A dolphin jumping through a peace sign on my lower back. Also have my navel pierced.

I toyed with the idea a few times but just couldn't get the image out of my head: me, female, at age 80, with tatoos on my wrinkled, sagging, droopy old-person skin. Kind of ruined the glamour for me!

We had a nurse in school, (probally the smartest and most compassionate) that had a big grim reaper tatooed on his arm. He wore long sleeves most of the time. Just looked sort of wierd for a nurse. I mean the reaper did.

HEAR, HEAR!!
I have always thought it would be nice to have one, but the thought of a faded old, outdated tattoo, slipping and sliding on the old wrinkley skin, to places it didn't originate from, always stops me from getting one!

I have a tattoo of a teddy bear holding a rosebud on my outer right ankle. It's concealed by my scrubs.

I have four, one on each upper arm and one on each calve. May get a fifth...haven't decided yet.
