I met Katie on 34th Street one afternoon when I stopped to ask her about her foot tattoo:
This tribute piece on her left foot is for her cousin, whose initials are JMS. The letters sit astride the ribbon designating awareness for the disease Multiple Sclerosis (MS). The two feet represent the fact that she helps raise awareness in the fight against MS by participating in an MS Walk each year.
For more information on MS, visit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society's website here.
Katie also shared with me these wings on the back of her neck:
The initials "MCF" refer to her brother Mark, who was killed with a friend a few years back when a train struck them. This memorial piece ensures that her brother is always with her.
Katie's tattoos were inked by Spencer at Fat Kat Tattoos in Keyport, New Jersey. Work from Fat Kat has appeared previously on http://tattoosmonday.blogspot.com/ here.
Thanks to Katie for sharing two of her four tattoos with us here on http://tattoosmonday.blogspot.com/!
