Ever since she got her second dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, area grandmother Joan Gluck has been missing the days when her family gave a shit about her.
“They used to call me all the time, but since I got vaccinated, zilch,” said Gluck, explaining that both her children and grandchildren have seemed to care significantly less about her well-being now that she is no longer highly vulnerable to the coronavirus. “I miss when they were always asking me how my day was, and how I’m feeling. It was nice to be loved.”
“Sometimes they would drive by my house, and my grandkids would blow me little kisses from the car,” Gluck continued, recalling the cherubic smiles that have been noticeably absent from her life as of late. “I haven’t seen a single one of them in weeks. I guess they’re back to not thinking about me until the next serious threat to my health rolls around.”
At press time, a frontline worker was missing when everybody appreciated him.
