"Kawhi" keeps trending on Twitter after his Clippers lose. Yes, Toronto is that petty. We ask Ellie how to better handle this breakup, writes @JoeCallaghan84

Just two years removed from winning the whole damn thing and wrapping a city of long-suffering fans and new fans and newcomers up in the glory, the Raptors are absent from the NBA playoffs for the first time in a long time.
thestar.com/sports/raptors…
Leonard, the driving force of the Raptors’ 2019 glory, and the Los Angeles Clippers, who seduced him away from Toronto soon after, again stumbled in the playoffs. And Raps fans from Toronto and beyond were luxuriating in the mess of it all.

This is very much a bitterness built on a more modern betrayal, a less-than-mutual uncoupling.

So it’s a relationship issue. Then, like thousands before us, who better to ask than Ellie Tesher? The Star’s iconic advice columnist tackles issues heavy and hearty every day.

NEW from @smckinley1: ‘He couldn’t understand what was wrong with him’: Families drawn in to mystery of New Brunswick brain disease face agonizing wait
thestar.com/news/canada/20…
Remembered as a good-hearted workaholic; a tough man, strong as an ox — a man who never complained, Cedric Mills died at 62 in 2016.

His daughter, Trina Musseau, has new hope that she and her family may be getting closer to finding out what killed him. thestar.com/news/canada/20…
In early March, public health officials in New Brunswick sent out a memo detailing a brain disease that has been baffling doctors. Now, families across the region and the world are wondering if their loved ones might also have the same affliction.

“People will be doing things that they were previously told were dangerous.”

NEW from @nadineyousif_: The cautiousness to emerge out of the pandemic has been dubbed by some as “restart anxiety.” Here’s why many Canadians are feeling it.
thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
A recent poll by Leger and the Association for Canadian Studies revealed 52% of respondents felt some sort of anxiety about reopening.

That anxiety is highest among those aged 18 to 24, 68% of whom felt unease. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
Steven Taylor, a professor and clinical psychologist at UBC, explains ‘restart anxiety’ as a form of anticipatory anxiety, where a person is anxious about an upcoming stressful event and may imagine worst-case scenarios. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…

Families on ventilators. No time for breaks. Patients treated in hallways.

The Star's exclusive look, in photos, inside Brampton Civic Hospital, the one hospital for a population of 600,000 hit by a brutal, crushing third wave of COVID-19. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
No room. Andrea Hall checks the vital signs of a patient lying sick on a stretcher. Here, out in the open. "There’s no privacy for the patient, and it can sometimes be chaos in the hallway, but we manage.”

Struggling to breathe. “Now, we see whole families. The mom and dad upstairs on a ventilator, the son coming into our ER because he can’t breathe. This time around it really feels like more of a nightmare," registered nurse Jennifer Shiels says. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/… Image

“A huge relief for me and my family.”

NEW from @Jleerankin: Ontario appeal court overturns mother’s first-degree murder conviction in death of her 16-year-old disabled daughter
thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
Cindy Ali was initially charged with manslaughter after Cynara Ali, who had cerebral palsy and could not speak or move around on her own, died in February 2011 following what Ali testified was a home invasion of the family’s Scarborough home by two men. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…
The charge was later upped to first-degree murder, and in 2016, a jury found her guilty of that charge, which comes with an automatic life sentence in prison.

Ali has had her conviction set aside and a new trial ordered following a successful appeal. thestar.com/news/gta/2021/…

NEW: It could be a two-dose summer for every Ontarian who wants to get a COVID-19 vaccination.

Thanks to an ample supply of vaccines, the province says it is shortening the time between shots, meaning more jabs in more arms in the months ahead. thestar.com/politics/provi…
People over 80 can begin booking second doses starting Monday followed by those over 70 on June 14.

Here's an eligibility chart: thestar.com/politics/provi…
“The new dose interval could be as short as 28 days, where local appointments and supply are available,” health officials told a background briefing Friday in advance of a news conference by Premier Doug Ford.
