7 Amazing Diabetes Tattoos!
Why do we love diabetes tattoos so much? Because they’re a way to take back the “diabetic” label and make it an artistic symbol of hope, belonging, and even pride. We love that these tattoos allow people to not only have a way to communicate about the condition in case of an emergency, but that they allow people to do so in ways that are entirely unique and personal.
A tattoo can be a conversation started and a way to reframe someone’s view of diabetes. “Cool tattoo. Are you a diabetic?” And thus an enlightening conversation begins that will hopefully result in another diabetes advocate, and maybe even a friend.
