'Why my sister's ashes are tattooed on my back'
A woman from Cardiff has been tattooed with ink mixed with the ashes of her late sister.
Nicola Hollands say they were "very very close" and after Charlotte's death last year from cancer, she thought the tattoo would be a "great way" to keep her loved one with her, "forever".
Charlotte was five years younger and when she was born, Nicola says she "knew straight away" that she was going to "look after her and protect her".
The image of the angel has been created on her back - it isn't complete yet but Nicola says that when it is, it will be the "biggest part" of her.
