Tattoo & Cat Walk for 50th!!!
For my 50th birthday, I went big. Go Big or Go Home! LOL This is me doing the Cat Walk (851 ft high) on a 1 1/2 ft wide walkway. Also, to celebrate, I got a tattoo but it also was the final straw in my battle against PTSD. (Scroll to the end of this page)
I developed PTSD in April 5, 2010 when the Upper Big Branch coal mines blew. It brought all the trauma I suffered with my dad's death in the coal mines back with a vengeance. I've worked & prayed hard to get past the PTSD and the tattoo was my last step. God has healed me of PTSD. I'm no longer crippled by it. PRAISE TO GOD!
The tattoo shows my Jewish bloodlines, my Jewish tribe (Dan), my savior, Jesus Christ (cross), my dad being a minister (Bible), and my dad's name with the days God allotted to him before he was called home from a job well done.

Has Momma seen it yet? Or Sis?
Well, phoned mom well in advance of my visit and hung up while she was still screaming saying I had to go. LOL Yep, they\'ve seen it and my t-shirt sleeve covers it. It\'s next to my heart because of my dad.
So what did the tribe of Dan do? LIke were they priests, farmers? Maybe they were miners huh?
Tats can be addicting you know....next thing you know you\'ll have a whole family tree across your back LOL!
..................yah, you could even hide the \"bad eggs\" in your armpits ?!?
NAN - Tribe of Dan, per the Bible, will be the judges & protectors of Israel. I always wondered why I was ready for a good fight. LOL
Genesis 49: 16-17.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
At first I was upset about the snake thing until I studied about it. This particular snake lays calmly alone under a bush leaving alone anyone unless threatened. The horse in Bible times was always used by someone coming to attack or commit war. Donkeys/mules were used by peaceable people. By striking at the horse\'s heel, the snake was unsuspected and would throw the rider who was attempting to harm Israel. Therefore, THE TRIBE OF DAN will fight for and protect Israel\'s people.
