In This Heartfelt Memoir From One Of The Youngest Recipients Of The Transorbital Lobotamy, Howard Dully Shares The Story Of A Painfully Dysfunctional Childhood, A Misspent Youth, His Struggle To Claim The Life That Was Taken From Him, And His Redemption.At Twelve, Howard Dully Was Guilty Of The Same Crimes As Other Boys His Age: He Was Moody And Messy, Rambunctious With His Brothers, Contrary Just To Prove A Point, And Perpetually At Odds With His Parents. Yet Somehow, This Normal Boy Became One Of The Youngest People On Whom Dr. Walter Freeman Performed His Barbaric Transorbitalor Ice Picklobotomy.Abandoned By His Family Within A Year Of The Surgery, Howard Spent His Teen Years In Mental Institutions, His Twenties In Jail, And His Thirties In A Bottle. It Wasnt Until He Was In His Forties That Howard Began To Pull His Life Together. But Even As He Began To Live The Normal Life He Had Been Denied, Howard Struggled With One Question: Why?There Were Only Three People Who Would Know The Truth: Freeman, The Man Who Performed The Procedure; Lou, His Cold And Demanding Stepmother Who Brought Howard To The Doctors Attention; And His Father, Rodney. Of The Three, Only Rodney, The Man Who Hadnt Intervened On His Sons Behalf, Was Still Living. Time Was Running Out. Stable And Happy For The First Time In Decades, Howard Began To Search For Answers. Through His Research, Howard Met Other Lobotomy Patients And Their Families, Talked With One Of Freemans Sons About His Fathers Controversial Lifes Work, And Confronted Rodney About His Complicity. And, In The Archive Where The Doctors Files Are Stored, He Finally Came Face To Face With The Truth.Revealing What Happened To A Child No Onenot His Father, Not The Medical Community, Not The Statewas Willing To Protect, My Lobotomy Exposes A Shameful Chapter In The History Of The Treatment Of Mental Illness. Yet, Ultimately, This Is A Powerful And Moving Chronicle Of The Life Of One Man.
