We love this true story about a word scoring we hear all day long❤️🤱👶❤️

In 1952, a woman rejected from surgery created a 60-second test that would save more lives than any scalpel ever could.
Dr. Virginia Apgar wanted to be a surgeon. She had the skills, the dedication, and the degree. But hospital after hospital said the same thing: "No operating room will hire a woman."
So she walked away from her dream and into anesthesiology—a field no one wanted. A field where she'd be underestimated for the rest of her career.
But Apgar saw something everyone else had missed.
In delivery rooms across America, newborns were dying within minutes of birth. Doctors would deliver a baby, glance at it, and make a split-second guess: "This one will make it" or "This one won't." There was no system. No standard. Just chaos disguised as medicine.
One morning in 1952, sitting in a hospital cafeteria, Apgar grabbed a napkin and sketched out five simple measurements: heart rate, breathing, muscle tone, reflexes, and skin color. Each scored 0, 1, or 2. Add them up. A perfect 10 meant healthy. A low score meant immediate intervention.
She called it the Apgar Score.
It was so simple that some doctors dismissed it. But nurses loved it. Hospitals started using it. And within ten years, nearly every delivery room in America had adopted it.
Infant mortality plummeted.
Babies who would have been left to die were suddenly being resuscitated, treated, saved. A test that took 60 seconds became the most widely used clinical assessment in medical history.
Apgar didn't stop there. She earned a master's in public health, joined the March of Dimes, and spent the next two decades advocating for mothers and babies worldwide. She studied birth defects. She pushed for prenatal care. She testified before Congress.
When journalists asked how she succeeded in a field that tried to shut her out, she smiled and said, "Women are like tea bags—you don't know how strong they are until they're in hot water."
Dr. Virginia Apgar died in 1974. But her test lives on.
Every two seconds, somewhere on Earth, a newborn is scored using her system. Millions of lives have been saved because one woman—told she wasn't good enough for surgery—decided to rewrite the rules instead.
Sometimes the greatest breakthroughs come from the people who were never supposed to be in the room.✍️
