Neil, who has already been to the grocery store, dropped off laundry, worked out at the gym, and taken the dog to the vet, is ready to tackle whatever is on my list," writes HuffPost guest writer Marjorie Weidenfeld Buckholtz.⁠ ⁠ “I am barely awake. What list? I groggily wonder.”⁠ ⁠ “Neil ― what a guy. In addition to his many duties, he is the manager of all things me.” ⁠ ⁠ “He appears at the threshold of the porch juggling my coffee and a Danish in one hand, my handwritten list in the other. It is the ‘to-do’ inventory I had outlined the night before. Damn.”⁠ ⁠ “‘Will I ever learn?’ I ask myself.”⁠ ⁠ “‘Why is HE like this?’” I wonder. We’re from the ‘Free to Be You and Me’ generation, and we equally shared all the duties involved in running our chaotic family of four rambunctious kids under the age of 10. He changed diapers, made lunches, bought groceries, did the laundry, and more. I was the designated talker when it came to home repairs, juggled hapless babysitter schedules and medical appointments, shopped for large appliances, and bought and repaired the cars.”⁠ ⁠ “What miraculous alignment of the planets could bring two opposites together... and make them stick together for six decades?” ⁠ ⁠ “Recently, at an anniversary party in a room full of friends and family, Neil toasted our longevity in his favorite language — science jargon. Clearly understood by other neuroscientists, it leaves some of us civilians scratching our heads. Rarely does Neil volunteer to speak publicly in his private life, although professionally, as head of Alzheimer’s research for the National Institutes of Health, he gave talks all over the world. At home, he is quite reserved, so I didn’t anticipate what was coming.”⁠ ⁠ Read Neil’s beautiful answer at our link in bio. // 📷 Courtesy of Alison Buckholtz」10月11日 1時30分
