Amy asked him about her tick bite, sharing that it's still itching 7 weeks later. He looked at it, and said something definitely looks like it's in there. Bones asked if she had seen a doctor for it, and because she hadn't, she should probably search Google for a specialist. Eddie asked about his eyesight because he was losing his near-sight. He first asked if it's normal that this is happening to him as he's getting older. Bones said yes, and the reason he knows that is because his family member who is an Ophthalmologist told him the same thing. Eddie had a follow-up question asking if he should get readers or just enlarge the text on his phone to which Bones encouraged him to get the readers. Though Eddie is likely not going to take that advice because to him, getting glasses is him "giving up on life."

Lunchbox asked Dr. Bones if he could solve the problem no doctor has ever been able to. He hasn't been able to touch his shoulders since birth and wants to know why. Bones said it's a birth defect and encouraged him to read Stanley The Dog: The First Day of School as medicine because the book is about accepting being different. Morgan wanted to know how long it would take for her new injury to heal. She bruised/possibly broke her tailbone in a rollerblading accident. Bones said from his personal previous experience, it will likely take about 2 months to heal and ice can help. But really it's about how much pain she's willing to take in order to do her usual activities like working out.

The Mount Rushmore has a state flower. But did you know we also have a state tree and a state fish? Yes, we even have a state code.

Here is what we have so far in Wyoming. Thanks to the South Dakota Secretary of State's Office for the info:

MOST RECKLESS DRIVERS' VEHICLES

We've all seen 'em.

That souped-up vehicle sitting next to you at the red light or blowing your doors off on the interstate.

And you're probably right. But which vehicles on the road today are causing drivers to take the most risks?

A BestLife story breaks looks at a study from North Bay Legal and Insurify to pinpoint exactly which vehicles are being piloted by the most reckless drivers, according to figures from the National Highway Safety Administration.
