Nursing home death: 'All they had to do was call 911,' family says By Ralph Ellis, CNN The title of this article is "All they had to do was call 911", and throughout the article he writes about each situation and how it could have been prevented which shows that he sides with the family. For each of the paragraph titles the Author chose a phrase from a quote that the people related to this case said, but he only chose phrases that gave emotion to the writing, for example he chose "Absolutely Stunning" which gave that paragraph a very shocked tone. He also used "Deepest Sympathy" which came from a statement from the Rehabilitation center that was allegedly responsible for the deaths of some of the people residing there, so he used this a s a heading to show even the people responsible for this tragedy feel bad, and so should everyone else. The purpose of this article was to explain why this rehabilitation center was given a lawsuit and why the family was right for creating a lawsuit against them. At the beginning of the article it starts off with Erika Navarro's last words to her grandfather I told him, 'Grandpa, I'll be coming in a week to celebrate our birthdays and to see you again,' "..."He just said, 'Hurry up and get here so we can sit down chat and play dominoes.' " The author used that conversation to appeal to pathos because it brings up emotion especially to people who have had a loved one die and know exactly what type of pain Erika is going through, and to know that this could have been prevented makes people even more emotional. This creates an emotional attachment to this story right from the beginning. The author includes that the Rehabilitation center had deleted voice mails and refuse to give out details on what those voice mails said. This supports the authors stance on this lawsuit because why would a company need to delete and not give out information if they had nothing to hide.
