My Lobotomy is such a fascinating radio program I heard on NPR once, about a man named Howard Dully who had a lobotomy at a very young age, and when he got older, decided to do some research and talk to his family to find out more about it. He always felt different, as if something had been taken away from him, and his family never spoke of the incident. It’s really sad that this barbaric practice went on for so long, in the face of so much evidence that it’s success rate was spotty at best. And so many people’s lives were destroyed by it, usually poor people or people in a bad position without the means to advocate for themselves. And so amazing that in the end Howard was able to find some peace and healing by producing this radio documentary and talking to other victims, and his father.
