  • It's Not Just Cramps: Massachusetts Lawmakers Consider the Future of Endometriosis Care
    Jul 26 2025
    Nearly one out of every ten women around the globe have a chronic disease called endometriosis. This gynecological condition can be incredibly painful, at times debilitating. Advocates say the medical industry hasn't given this condition the attention it deserves, and many patients say they don't feel heard when they try to explain their symptoms. Lawmakers on Beacon Hill are now considering a bill that would create a special task force focused on improving research and treatment. Dr. Pietro Bortoletto, co-founder of Terra Fertility in Dedham, and his patient, Madeleine Rodriguez, join Nichole to talk about the condition and the efforts to bring more awareness to its impacts.

  • Boston's "Hands Across the Sea" Delivers New Books and Possibilities to Caribbean Children
    Jul 26 2025
    Kids love new books, no matter where you live! In the eastern Caribbean, many schools and libraries don't have enough books for children to enjoy, something that's contributing to child illiteracy. While people here in the US pull together book drives with the best of intentions, oftentimes, the books that arrive are either in bad shape or not culturally relevant. Hands Across the Sea buys books new and works with people in the Caribbean to distribute them where they're needed most. Ben Engle, the Executive Director of Hands Across the Sea, joins Nichole to talk about their mission.
