Rosemary Kennedy, younger sister of President John F. Kennedy, was lobotomized in 1941 at age 23. In 1959, she was put out of public view at a remote facility in rural Wisconsin, where, for more than twenty years, she remained unvisited by family and nonfamily alike, until 1962.Elizabeth KoehlerPentacoff (Liz) and her parents were likely the first nonKennedy family members to visit Rosemary following her lobotomy. Liz was niece to Rosemarys caretaker, Sister Paulus, a Catholic nun at St. Colleta, and she visited Rosemary on a regular basis for the next thirtyfour years. Through their friendship, Liz discovered the person many had forgotten or never known.In 2015, ten years after Rosemarys death, Liz came forward with a fascinating book about the hidden daughter of Americas royal Kennedy family. The Missing Kennedy: Rosemary Kennedy and the Secret Bonds of Four Women is truly unique. It is an eyewitness account of Rosemarys postlobotomy years, the first published by a nonfamily member, and its augmented by nearly 100 neverbeforeseen pictures of Rosemary after she was lobotomized.Liz can shed considerable light on so many questions, the four biggest being: Why did no one visit Rosemary for more than two decades? What quality of life did Rosemary lead after her lobotomy? What should have been the correct diagnosis of Rosemarys prelobotomy condition? And in what ways did immense good come from Rosemarys tragic life?This touching story of the intersection of two families will leave you with a unique portrait of the missing, but not forgotten, Kennedy.
