Celina Edelstein lived in New York, was married and had a son. They divorced while their son was young. With a background in chemistry and a love for science, she sought a job in research. Angelo, a research doctor, offered her the opportunity to help him open a research lab. Together they wrote grants, studied molecules that carry cholesterol and cause atherosclerosis and thrombosis and published research papers. He became her professional mentor and they worked together for 44 years. Angelo’s wife died and, some years later, after they closed the lab, Angelo and Celina discovered they cared for each other and eventually lived together for seven years.
