This healed sleeve is a reminder  of how short life can be and that we need to live life while we can instead of just existing.  The hourglass of time is running out so make the best of what life has given you.  The client has dealt with Crohn's disease and takes medication to keep it at bay but he doesn't let the disease rule his life.  Instead he has chosen to live a healthier lifestyle and to live life to it's fullest.  He is an avid skydiver and has amassed well over 100 jumps thus far.  The tattoo is all Silverback XXX and done by Larry Brogan www.tattoocityskinart.com in Lockport IL.
