On April 2, Nelson’s older sister, Sharon Nelson-Cruikshank, 68, died of lung cancer. On the same day, Sanders, 87, was in the hospital for tests for several medical issues, but his family expected him out that day, Nelson said. Sanders frequently asked his wife about Nelson-Cruikshank. After learning his daughter had died, Sanders, whom Nelson described as an honorable man who loved his wife and children, also died, just 13 hours later.

The woman, 30, had been at home in South Austin with her toddler when a man outside “shot through the window of the garden apartment striking the mother and child,” according to a media notification from Chicago police. Officers were called to the 5200 block of West Congress Parkway in South Austin about 11:45 p.m. and found the woman with a graze wound somewhere on her body and another to her hand, police said.

The Washington Football Team released Moses, 30, last month after signing former Bears left tackle Charles Leno. Washington is expected to start Leno at left tackle and rookie Sam Cosmi, a second-round pick, at right tackle. Moses started the last 96 regular-season games for Washington, and 95 of those starts came at right tackle. He was pressed into action at left tackle for one game last season, and his only start as a rookie in 2014 came at left tackle. So Moses has two more NFL starts at left tackle than the Bears’ entire current collection of offensive linemen. Washington didn’t need Moses at left tackle when he broke into the starting lineup because Trent Williams was in place then. Some believe he has the ability to play left tackle, but he’s definitely better at right tackle. If the Bears sign Moses, he probably would be in the mix at left tackle in the event the team doesn’t believe rookie Teven Jenkins is ready to play on the quarterback’s blind side. But Jenkins will be given every opportunity to nail down the starting job at left tackle.

Looking ahead to the fall, when schools will reopen, getting information to families and vaccines for children will be important, she said. She is also monitoring whether or when people might need boosters, another moment when information will be key. People might question whether the vaccine was effective if they need a booster, even as health experts have said this is a likely possibility.

“Good fish, bad fish, red fish, blue fish,” said Kevin Irons, manager of the aquatic nuisance species program with the Illinois Department of Natural Resources. “We can put the invasive carps in one holding bin, in one bag, one net. And we can let the good fish pass, whatever situation it is — either back into the river, over a levy, into Emiquon, over a lock and dam somewhere else where they can’t do it.”

You and your wife should make a date to take your baby to a park, café, or playground. Sit together and enjoy your child. Tiptoe out into the world in stages, and you’ll encounter parents of young children and other people (like me) who are also fumbling, blinking, and gingerly emerging.
