IT’S ABOUT TRUST.

When orthopedic surgeon Stephen Snow irst arrived at Capital Medical Center in 1992, he recalls it was a “cozy community hospital.” Today Capital is still cozy, but is also a state-of-the-art, full-service hospital that draws patients from all over Southwest Washington.

Racing NASCAR Distances Itself from Donald Trump After remarks DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) — NASCAR is the latest corporation to distance itself from Donald Trump. On the same day one of its top sponsors called on NASCAR to take a stance against Trump, the motorsports series said it will not hold its season-ending awards ceremony at the Trump National Doral Miami. "We looked at everything we saw coming down and what we heard from our sponsors and our partners and what we feel we should be doing, and that's what led us to the decision today," NASCAR spokesman David Higdon said Friday at Daytona International Speedway. A message seeking comment from Trump left by The Associ- ated Press was not immediately returned.

He greeted everyone with his trademark smile, pass- ing some with a handshake, oth- ers with a pat on the shoulder. “Good morning!” “What’s your good news today?” “Hello!” It was a busy time, but there was an extra layer of complica- tion: One of his church’s mem- bers, Louise Troh, was preparing to release “My Spirit Took You In,” a memoir published Tuesday. The book details her relationship with fiance Thomas Eric Dun- can, the Liberian man who died from the Ebola virus in Dallas last fall. Now, yet again, cameras were coming into his sanctuary. Reporters were coming with empty notebooks and lots of questions. Troh had started to open up to interviews, but the majority of the press wrangling went to the pastor and Christine Wicker, a former religion reporter for The Dallas Morning News and co- author of Troh’s memoir. Since the Ebola virus struck Dallas last September, Mason has balanced the roles of me- dia liaison, pastor, advocate and more. He’s sat for interviews on CNN. He’s fought to find Troh and her family a place to live away from the cameras. He’s sheltered them, giving them Jim Tuttle / The Dallas Morning News time and space to grieve, away Louise Troh, center, the iancee of Thomas Eric Duncan, sits with her granddaughters Rose Yah, left, 6, and Knowledge Dopoe, 5, at Wilshire Baptist Church on Easter from the news media.
