She tries to keep it covered up with her hair down, but when she puts it up, everybody can see the "bump". Eventually she has to have it surgically removed but since she has not health insurance, that will have to wait.
Remember kids... piercings and tattoos CAN get infected and you have to pay for it to get it fixed.
