UpNorthNews Radio with Pat Kreitlow

When we last visited with Heather Martell of Chippewa Falls, it was to hear her heartbreaking story of needing a late-term abortion due catastrophic medical issues. Now, still wanting to grow her family, she talks about the despair of watching Republicans target IVF as a way to bring life into the world. Also: Salina Heller passes along some of the flavor of this weekend’s Jackson County fair, including the demolition derby—with farm combines!
