Q: Holy s**t! You have cancer???
A: Yep. I was diagnosed with Stage 4 Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL) in May 2025. I did 5 rounds of targeted radiation and then 6 rounds of R-CHOP chemo. I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.
I had a brief period of remission / stability starting in October, but the cancer is now active again and unfortunately aggressive.
Q: What’s going to happen now?
A: I’ll be doing CAR-T therapy this time. I will be unable to work for 3 months at minimum. I’m really fu***ng bummed about it. My hiatus starts June 18th. I have a few tattoo slots open if you want to book an appointment.
Q: Are you going to be okay?
A: Yep.
Q: Can I do anything to help?
A: What I want more than anything is to book awesome tattoos with people when I can work again. My work sustains me, it helped so much last time—allowing me a sense of control and stability through such a dark time.
In the meanwhile, if you’re capable and willing, you can donate to GoFundMe to help cover my family’s living expenses. I’m currently working on an appeal for SSI disability as I have already been denied once and the doctors specifically told my husband I will require a full-time caretaker after the treatment.
Thank you for your support. Love to you all.
