A Father's Fight ::


On 'angels' wings'
It's 4:45 a.m., still dark, and Scott McKibbin stoops over in his driveway, silently loading bags into the family van, preparing for their trip to New Orleans and July's USA National Karate Federation championships.
An active role
Scott McKibbin and Jon Dopkeen logged so many hours, working together, their wives branded the partnership their "other marriage."
For the time being
Scott McKibbin pushes through the waiting room doors of Edward Hospital's medical center in Bolingbrook. He's come straight from work in Chicago, and is wearing a suit and a drawn, tired look. His lips twist into a wry smile as he hands a cylindrical container to a visitor.
Facing fate
It is April, late afternoon. Along Lawrence Drive in Naperville's

Ashbury subdivision the trees are trimmed with buds. Family clusters

move across the parking lot of Patterson Elementary, shadows trailing

them into the yawning doors, their paths leading to the gym.

Fresh vegetables, organic meat, baked treats. One can't think of summer without thinking of the local farmers markets, which are just getting under way. Our interactive map will help you find the location and hours of all the markets in three counties.
