A beloved grandmother who spent all her life taking care of her family is proving to the world that you're never too old to make your dreams come true.


Dorothy Pollack, who turned 103-years-old in June, is spending her days going through her bucket list. Her first adventure? A frog tattoo in honor of the one thing she loves more than beer and burgers.
