Take a stand for those who can't

Dear Editor,
Attention: All state and local legislative representatives and residents of Oroville and Tonasket.
The wolves have been circling for nearly to years since the closing of North Valley Assisted Living in Tonasket. Now the wolves are at the door preparing to slaughter our lambs of North Valley Extended Care.
Please save them from being sent to God only knows where to die from confusion, longing for family and friends and trying to adjust to strange surroundings and new medical care.
Standup: Take a stand for those who cannot stand up and care for themselves. Please call the North Valley Hospital administration and your elected North Valley Hospital board of commissioners.
Thank you,
Patricia Atchison
