To add insult to (accidental shooting-related?  ) injury this isn't even an original concept, it's from a poster. My gun collecting roomie has one.

To me it looks like the trigger and handle have been taped, (to prevent fingerprints?), and there is some sort of flames or smoke obscuring the handle. Which is a perfectly reasonable thing to have tattooed on the side of your head.

Ah yes, the kind of tattoo that not only looks bad, but is also completely useless as paramedics and nurses are instructed to ignore that kind of thing.

I always thought this was a bit weird. Like, I understand covering EMTs' asses if someone is covered in tattoos and they miss a medic alert thing, but if the tattoo is big and bold and the only one on the body, I have a really hard time imagining some EMT seeing such a specific thing (like "Type 1 Diabetic") and not assuming they're telling the truth. Like, maybe in the paperwork they won't admit it for legal reasons, but they still might throw some glucagon or something the patients way a bit earlier than otherwise, and at that point the tattoo has served its purpose. Edit: tattoo still ugly

I was curious and looked it up and it seems like part of the problem is EMTs aren't trained to look for tattoos, and also there is no standardized location for them to check, so it's easy for them to miss. The other thing that was pointed out was that a wallet card can be updated with up to date data, in a way a tattoo can't. (Admittedly that's less of an issue with diabetes)

(Admittedly that's less of an issue with diabetes) If I understand correctly though there is a standard place: wrists, ankles, and necks are all checked quickly for medic-alert bracelets or necklaces. I do a lot of work at a diabetes camp and pretty much every adult under 30 has a tattoo with the medic-alert symbol in one of those places. Most people go for the wrist because if they are gonna do an IV they have to look at the inner arm anyways.

The silver lining is she won't have to pay for laser removal since she's probably going to lose that leg.

Re: Diabeeetus tattoos, my coworker's daughter has type 1 and Pinterest showed her the idea of the wrist tattoo instead of a bracelet. My coworker is pretty conservative and was not excited about it. The daughter was all in, and after begging and coercing got my coworker to sign off. The tattooer was a good one and basically talked the daughter out of it. He said that no paramedic would look at it and so on. So the daughter ended up getting a huge first tattoo of flowers or something instead of text saying "diabetes type 1" on her wrist. My coworker being all conservative and so on was not pleased.  In other news: Imma slit my wrist with the ribbon of diabetes:  It has something to do with being gay? I am confused  If all else fails, this classic should put diabetes in its place:

The horrifying thing in this photo is that cord on the carpet, that's a clip cord for a tattoo machine, she just got that tattoo right there, on that poo poo stained bed surrounded by every contaminant known to man. Hopefully she doesn't have that leg any more due to gangrene so nobody has to see the monstrosity of that 'tattoo'.

EMTs, ER doctors and phlebotomists alike have all given kudos to my friend with a very similar (simple, easy to read and on the forearm) tattoo. I don't know what emt/doctor would see a "type 1 diabetes" tattoo and say "probably untrue"

I may end up getting a tattoo from a guy who calls himself "Beatdown." His work actually looks really good, but he sounds like a dude that works with a homemade tat gun for meth.

In an emergency situation the medic/emt will still check the persons sugar before giving glucose. No one is going to provide medical treatment based on the presence of a tattoo.
