LA artist raises awareness about MS through gorgeous mural

I recently came across this CBS report that highlights LA artist Lydia Emily. Lydia created this amazing mural in downtown LA, hoping to spread awareness about living with Multiple Sclerosis.

Have a watch and be prepared to be inspired!

You’re invited to share your MS inspired tattoo with Healthline.com

Getting inked can be a powerful reminder that you are stronger than your MS, and a great way to raise awareness. While I don’t have a tattoo myself (reason being is that I cannot decide for the life of me what to ink myself with – I am forever contemplating the perfect design), I think what our friends over at Healthline are doing is pretty cool. They are hosting the “My MS tattoo” campaign and are looking for tattoos inspired by your fight with MS.


Here’s how to participate:
  • Send a clear photo of your tattoo (at least 285x285 in .jpg or .png format) to nlascurain@healthline.com with the subject line “My MS tattoo” by April 17, 2015
  • In 90 words or less, describe the inspiration behind your tattoo
  • Please identify if you'd like your name published or not
  • Healthline will then publish them and share with their Facebook community

When describing the inspiration behind your tattoo, think about these questions: What does it mean to you? Why did you decide to get the tattoo? Was there anything special that motivated the design?

Have fun and I look forward to seeing your MS inspired tattoos out on Healthline.com. Perhaps seeing yours will inspire me to finally decide on what my tattoo should look like! 

Take care,

Christie
