Dorothy Pollack is here to show that if one is young at heart than age is definitely just a number. On her 103 birthday, the woman decided to tick off an item on her bucket list and got a tattoo.

After spending months in isolation at her care home due to the coronavirus, her granddaughter Teresa Zavitz-Jones says Dorothy's mental health started to dip.

Speaking to CNN, Teresa said: "Covid-19 had her in prison for months. The nurse in the home said she was horribly depressed and we needed to get her out.

"We couldn't see her so we had no idea how she really was. She's extremely hard of hearing so phone calls were not helpful."

Worried sick about her grandmother, Teresa eventually got her discharged from the nursing home in Muskegon, Michigan, and they set about finding some fun things to do.

Now when we think of fun things for an old lady, we would think about taking a stroll around the park or knitting cute scarfs for her grandchildren.

But nope. This woman wanted to do something more happening and her definition of fun was definitely different too.

Dorothy told CNN: "It was pretty exciting because years ago my grandson wanted me to get one and I wouldn't do it. All of a sudden, I decided I would like to have one. And if I could, a frog. Because I like frogs."

They took her to A.W.O.L. Custom Tattooing in Muskegon to get an image of a frog and, according to her tattoo artist Ray Reasoner Jr., she 'took it like a champ' and 'didn't even wince once'.

Oh, and did we tell you that Dorothy got to tick off another item of her bucket list? Yes, people, she got a ride on the back of a motorbike too. I mean what a badass grandmother!
