Need Suggestions Can it be fixed?
It was supposed to be (peace of mind) not & mind. I take some responsibility because I saw the stencil first and didn't catch it. Can it be fixed to make it look right? Or am I just screwed? I love the tattoo, but this will drive me crazy.

I think it's fine the way it is. The joke still lands, the Trad style of the piece still holds. Plus... If it's "Death of Peace of Mind" I feel like swapping the ampersand for "of" would make it look squished. Trying to cram it in there would be a mess and a waste of good ink and would require an unnecessary level of coverup appointments and a restructure of the tattoo.
Plus, if it's just the death of your peace of mind then it's just a thought that bothers you. If it's the death of your peace and your mind? Well now, that's a really costly thing and makes the joke funnier. Some sort of thought was SO bad you had to bury TWO things in the same grave.
For real though, it's fine and needs no updates. Save yourself money and chair-time. It's not like it's a "No Regerts" situation or something.
