Into the light.

My sister died of breast cancer on August 12th.
When I asked my mom what she wanted for Christmas , she said she wanted her back.
I had no idea what to do.
That’s when I thought about Pascal Malorni Reniere (www.instagram.com/needle_juice) , my tattoo artist, and asked him to create this custom painting for them. Thanks my friend for making her shine. We can really feel her light through the painting. It’s like she’s back home with us.
They will cherish this image for the rest of their lives.

(Sorry for the poor video quality )

We miss you everyday Jo.

// front page edit : WOW ! Thank you for all the love and the light. I really appreciate it warms my heart .
For those asking about my dad : he got millions of hugs don’t worry :)

And also those asking about the cancer, we had another case of breast cancer in the family but it wasn’t the same type. My sister died from triple negative breast cancer, the most agressive and the hardest to cure. She was in remission when it came back for the 2nd time. She did some tests and they concluded that It wasn’t genetic. She had as much chance to win the lottery than to get this type of cancer..

Thank you all for your support and ladies go get your girls checked. Xx

"*sorry for poor video quailty"- this video is anything but. You have nothing to apologise for
