Default Surviving Wreck Tattoo

About 5 weeks ago I totaled my Road King. I ended up with 3 broken ribs, a broken collar bone, and some bleeding in the brain. By all measures, my prognosis is all good. I consider myself extremely lucky. I'm looking to get a tattoo that symbolizes surviving a motorcycle wreck. Looking for input. Any suggestions?

Totalled my RKC in June. Injuries not as bad as yours though. Someone suggested a broken angle wing. Can't decide though. You gonna ride again when healthy? My new ride is due to arrive tomorrow...knock on wood. Can't wait. Good luck get well soon.

Bleeding in the brain? The doc said this is now OK? I would want that carefully monitored. But then again maybe this is much more common than I know. Glad you are doing well. Broken wing tattoo sounds about right. Or how about Aces and Eights with a line through them?
