Victoria Vargas of El Paso, Texas, told InsideEdition.com that when her mom was faced with her second battle against breast cancer, she wanted to show her full support.

So she shaved her head in solidarity with her mom. Then, she suggested they get matching tattoos.

Bright pink bows, permanently inked to their bald heads.

"We'll never be bald again, together, ever in our lives," Vargas insisted. "That's the only time that skin is going to be bare and visible, so we might as well put something on it."

Her mom, Veronica Quintanilla, told InsideEdition.com that she calls it, "a little treat at the end of a horrible journey."

Quintanilla, 47, said the first time she battled breast cancer, her kids were 4, 6, and 8.

"It was hard," she said. "As a mother, you want to protect your children."

When the cancer returned, Quintanilla said her silver lining was her eldest daughter, Vargas.

"The last time she went through this, I was a lot younger so I didn't fully understand," the 21-year-old said. "Now that I'm a lot older, I got to see behind the scenes. It gave me an insight to what my mom's going through."

"It was a comfort to have my daughter right there next to me," Quintanilla said. "I could let my guard down and just be me."

Though Quintanilla's journey against breast cancer is not quite over, "I feel like I can take whatever life throws at me," with steadfast support from her loving daughter.

Q: Retirees pay for claiming Social Security too early

But even among retired respondents who said they worked with an advisor, the average age they started collecting Social Security retirement benefits was 63. That's only a year later than the earliest they could begin claiming benefits.

To be sure, if you have a family history of health problems or have no retirement savings, claiming Social Security benefits early may make sense. "The focus for us is always the client's cash flow needs," said Leon LaBrecque, a certified financial planner in Detroit. "If we can show a client a way to use existing savings as a bridge to full retirement age, we show them the amount they will gain by waiting."

Most financial advisors recommend waiting as long as possible to claim Social Security benefits. Why? Because you earn delayed retirement credits that increase the future retirement benefit by 8 percent per year until age 70.

"I see without a doubt that the biggest financial risk is longevity, and I feel it's my job to set clients straight on this," said Charles Sachs, a certified financial planner with Private Wealth Counsel in Miami.

Given the volatility of stock market and longer life expectancies, "having an inflation-indexed annuity, backed by the federal government in the form of a Social Security benefit is a nice thing to fall back on," he added.

A: Lack of knowledge, health issues and job loss prevent people from maximizing their Social Security benefits, according to a new survey.
