Summary

Sandy Morris used the September 2004 Beaver Beacon to seek others who might need or support dialysis access at the new Beaver Island Rural Health Center, explaining that three weekly mainland trips made Island retirement difficult.

Evidence limits

The appeal records a community need and proposed inquiry, not an installed dialysis unit, treatment plan, or later outcome.
