107-year-old woman’s only birthday wish was to hold a baby

ELMIRA, N.Y. (WETM-TV)- A nursing center in New York State helped 107-year-old Ruth Touschner celebrate her birthday by giving her the only gift she could ask for.

Ruth has a love for children and all she wanted for her birthday was to hold a baby and she was able to do just that.


Ruth lit up with joy when she saw that she now would be on television, and she got to hold a cute little girl.

Before leaving the facility, nurses said Ruth is still as ‘healthy as a horse’.

Happy Birthday, Ruth!
