The worst fucking news in the world.
My tattoo shop, Skin Factory in Vegas, has a couple of great artists. Among them are Angel, a very cool chick, and her boyfriend Cane. They were expecting a baby, their first, in 6 or 7 months; they were getting a photo a day of her in profile, charting the growth of their baby bump for an eventual stop-motion video. Cool, right?
A few days ago, her ex decided to cut a hole in their front door with a chainsaw and open fire with a gun, killing Cane and shooting Angel 8 times. She's expected to survive, but her unborn baby did not. So a jealous asshole took away her lover, her baby, and her immediate health. Here's the story:

These are good people: friendly, talented, cool, and young. Young! Angel volunteers her time and her artistic skill to various animal shelters--she's a totally righteous chick. From the first time I stumbled into the shop all prepped out, to the last time getting my sleeve completely filled in, Angel always greeted me with a big sincere smile and a head full of bright green or bright blue hair. Cane was more quiet, but equally friendly. They were playful with each other and obviously in love. I can't imagine her loss.
I heard about all this from my artist Ben. He's setting up a fund for her medical treatment, and I'll post the info here when I have it. I know most of you folks aren't swimming in cash, but if anyone can help--even in a small way--I'll appreciate it, and I'm sure she will too. Eight gunshot wounds probably won't hurt as much as the loss of her young family.
Here's Angel and an example of her work. Her portfolio can be seen in the link above.
