Getting a tattoo is a deeply personal thing. I haven’t ever gotten one myself, but I know lots of people who have, including my daughter. A lot of thought goes into each tattoo that people get. They’re very meaningful.

Last year, Healthline.com set up a slideshow highlighting the rheumatoid arthritis-specific tattoos of several RA patients. Those photos are a powerful reminder that each of

us is stronger than this disease, and not only that–they’re a great way to raise awareness about it.

Well, Healthline.com is putting together a new RA-tattoo slideshow right now, and they’re looking for photos. If you have an RA-related tat you’d like to show the world that illustrates your ability to rise above this disease and help raise awareness at the same time, please consider submitting a photo of it to Healthline.

It’s easy. Just email  a clear photo (at least 285×285 in .jpg or .png format) of  your tattoo, plus a short description of it, with the subject “My RA tattoo,” to nominations@healthline. That’s all you have to do to have your tat featured on the website.

I’m looking forward to seeing this year’s collection of beautiful RA tattoos!
