On today's Stateside, we spoke to reporter, Kate Wells about current surrogacy laws in Michigan and the legal complications they can create for parents. Then, a nonprofit in Saline is working to make the city less difficult and more dignified for individuals with dementia. We spoke with the organization's founder about their efforts and the services they offer. Concluding today's show, we heard from an Olympic snowboarder from the Upper Peninsula about his experiences at the Olympics and what he hopes to accomplish from here.
