Oh my god, this really made me gasp. My husband described my LD flap scar as looking like a shark bite! A powerful image which totally resonated with me. Weird.

Thanks for commenting! I never thought about this image as a shark bite but now I see where you are coming from! Great that you found some art that resonated with you. It is a powerful image, the artist has actually created a book called Not in the Pink.
