A lot happened in 1954. Social Security as we know it was signed into law by President Eisenhower, the first mass vaccination of children against polio began and the first organ transplants were done. The first electronic color television came on the market, Elvis Presley cut his first commercial record kicking off his incredible music career, I Love Lucy began airing around the nation, the song White Christmas was first heard and Texas Children’s Hospital admitted our first patient, opening doors to decades of caring for children and women in the community and around the globe.
Six decades is a long time to be around and Texas Children’s young patients think so too. Connect asked the patients what exactly they thought of the age 60. Watch this short video to hear their answers.
