Warm weather puts us all in the mood for outdoor dining-- and this includes ticks. Lyme Disease was once quite rare in Ohio, but the tick population has exploded recently. We'll find out why, and why Lyme can be so hard to treat. We'll also hear from a heart surgeon whose daughter fell victim to anorexia, and get an evolutionary explanation of menopause.
