http://healthshow.org/ – You know, we really do try to keep up with advances in medical technology here...but every so often you see something that still takes your breath away. On this week's Health Show, we'll introduce you to a young woman from Tennessee who lost an arm to an auto accident and is now being called The Bionic Mom.
We'll also take a look at the history of Malaria from two points of view: one from the history books...and a personal history from a reporter who has recovered from the disease. The a report from New York City about how hospitals there are making sure that communication with their patients isn't a roadblock to health care in a melting pot of immigrants.
