[losing touch.]

I wouldn't get words like 'pain' or 'scar' if i were you. They are just so negative and i think something more positive would be a lot better. Either 'Recovered' or "survivor' would be better in my opinion. Or a phrase/quote that is meaningful to you. And i do quite like the white ink idea, i've though about that myself but i've heard that you have to get them touched up and re-done a lot because they fade really easily. Just something to think about, but if you really want it.. then go for it, it's your body after all!
