Hi John,
I'm not sure how to do this with ggplot, but:
Time<- c("Age.25","Age.35","Age.45","Age.55")
Medians<-c(128.25,148.75,158.5,168.75)
> is.character(Time)
# [1] TRUE - thus it has no intrinsic numeric value to plot
> is.numeric(Medians)
# [1] TRUE
# coerce Medians to factor and then plot against Time, but can't do point/line
plot(as.factor(Time),Medians,type="p")
# let R determine the x values (1:4) and omit the x-axis
plot(Medians,type="b",xaxt="n")
# add the x-axis with the "Time" labels
axis(1,at=1:4,labels=Time)
