Gross eyelash mites live rent-free on your face — here's how to stop them | Weird But True
When Angelica Radevski lost her spouse unexpectedly earlier this year, the West Virginia nurse and mother-of-one made a bold decision that has stunned millions online — she preserved and framed a piece of his tattooed skin.
Angelica, 35, and her husband TJ had been lifelong friends before marrying in 2021 and raising their 10-year-old son, Preston.Everyone’s asking how we preserved my husband’s tattoo… This is just one piece of the story, but there is so much more to tell. But I want you to know how we did this, and why it mattered so much. 🖤In March, after TJ died suddenly at age 55, Angelica didn’t want a traditional keepsake. Instead, she wanted to frame her husband’s skin to show off her son’s favorite tattoo.

It was his first sleeve tattoo, and a favorite of his and their son’s. Preston was the one who ultimately made the final call.After TJ died suddenly at 55 on March 21, Angelica didn’t want a traditional keepsake; she wanted to frame her husband’s skin showing off her son’s favorite tattoo.After the funeral, Angelica used a marker to outline the exact tattoo they wanted to preserve on TJ’s right arm. A mortician then carefully removed the skin, placed it in a special preservation kit provided by the Ohio-based company Save My Ink Forever, and sent it off before TJ’s body was cremated. The preservation process took around 90 days. When the company returned the framed tattoo — encased in glass and set in a dark wooden frame — the moment was overwhelming.Of the more than 70 tattoos TJ had inked over his body, they chose to preserve his Pittsburgh Steelers helmet design — complete with skull imagery and his beloved team’s black and gold colors.The tattoo still held TJ’s skin texture, the fine details of his wrinkles, even stray hairs.Angelica and her son say the piece gives them a profound physical and emotional connection they couldn’t get from an urn. Angelica has since shared her journey of loss and preservation on TikTok, where her video about the tattoo has amassed nearly 30 million views. Viewers have been divided. While many expressed admiration and support, others compared her decision to something out of a horror story — even comparing her to serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer.“Just because it’s not what you want, you don’t have to make me feel bad about it,” she told People. “We feel him here a lot, spiritually and energetically,” she continued. “But this is that piece that we really, really needed. When we want to know he’s here, we can hold the frame, and it does so much more than a picture.” The widow also hopes her story helps others plan for the unthinkable. Without life insurance, her family faced immense financial pressure after TJ’s passing. Now, she uses her platform to advocate for open conversations about death and end-of-life wishes. “Instead of planning for a wedding for a year, why don’t we start planning and making it normal and not so ugly to talk about death,” she suggested. “You can be prepared — both financially and with what you want for your body.”'Frankenstein' rabbits with horrifying spikes growing from their heads are invading the US — and experts warn to stay away Inmates planned to make Idaho killer Bryan Kohberger's life hell in prison: 'They were waiting for him'Bethenny Frankel gives Meghan Markle savage business advice after a slew of failed endeavors‘Southern Charm’ Alum JT Thomas Flashes Bare Butt In Bizarre Nude Photo On Social Media: “Clearly I’ve Had Enough Wine”After TJ died suddenly at 55 on March 21, Angelica didn’t want a traditional keepsake; she wanted to frame her husband’s skin showing off her son’s favorite tattoo.Of the more than 70 tattoos TJ had inked over his body, they chose to preserve his Pittsburgh Steelers helmet design — complete with skull imagery and his beloved team’s black and gold colors.
