Is it normal i'm getting my brother's ashes mixed into ink for my tattoo for him?

I'm getting a blue Jay tattoo for my brother who committed suicide in 2018. I want to use some of his ashes in the ink.

    You want to honor him somehow. A bit of a odd way of doing so, but it normal to want to.

    Normal? Not at all. Although I can't say I would be bothered by it.

  • Be careful. I read an article about how people get these memorial tattoos with dates and initials and all they do is remind the person to be sad.

    You're brushing your teeth, you look down and you see the date and suddenly you stop brushing and it's like they just passed
