“...Rosemary Kennedy was, when her parents put her through a frontal lobotomy.”
I’ve heard that her father, old Joe, had the lobotomy done without Rose’s knowledge. Rose had put up with a lot of sh!t from Joe throughout her lifetime, including watching his affair with his secretary going on under her nose. But the lobotomy was what made Rose hate him. Don’t know if it’s true. When Reelz did the mini-series, that was how it was portrayed.
