I'm thinking of getting a tattoo (would be my first) for my 1-year anniversary of being cancer-free. I need some ideas on a design. I'm a guy, so it has to be "guy" themed. I have an idea on what I want but would like to hear other ideas. And NO, it won't be a tramp stamp, I'm not that type of boy. And I won't say what I'm thinking about getting because I don't want your thoughts to be tainted. You can either post it on here or send me a message if you don't want it to be public, your choice. Let the creative minds of ostomates begin.

I think Magoo had a post on tattoos. My mistake, it was w30bob. Maybe you can find it on his profile.

Found it.

Phoenix tattoo is not a common choice among tattoo lovers, but it's always the choice of people who have been through a lot in their lives and have come out stronger and wiser.

Start doodling on paper. Your mind and body will produce something original and your own. Then it will hit you and you'll be happy with your permanent mark you've made in life.

Hi Alex, I am also getting my first ever tattoo to signify my strength through my cancer journey. I am getting a Phoenix and under it will write "Still I Rise" in which my three kids are going to have that saying tattooed on them as a reminder that no matter what life brings - you need to always rise up and conquer! I am so excited for you! Good luck with your choice and show us when you get one!

That's really a nice idea for a tattoo. Are you sure you want to see it? I was going to put it on my, now one big, buttock. I aim to please though. Actually, I'm leaning towards having it on my back between my shoulders.

Phoenix?

What does a Phoenix Tattoo Mean? The symbol of a phoenix is easily recognizable and suggests birth, death, and rebirth, as well as the cyclical nature of life and its renewal. Many people turn to phoenixes for tattoos because they serve as a marker of turning over a new leaf in life.
