Lorelei Saliani, a cancer patient from Ingleside with older parents, says it was very important for her to get the vaccine even though she had to deal with the confusion of a mega vaccination event. âIf Iâm going to die from this cancer, I donât want to die not being able to see my parents," said Saliani. "I donât want to kill my parents by seeing them. I can't safely go grocery shopping, I donât leave the house. I canât see my children or my five grandchildren.â
