I'm not too familiar with that story. I am aware of her but I don't know much about her or her history. Her name is Rosemary and she was born mentally retarded. Something Joe Kennedy (the father) couldn't seem to deal with and scheduled her to have a lobotomy, the surgery was botched and left Rosemary more mental damaged.
I don't remember if his is still alive today, but I think she is

Yeah, that sounds about right. I just haven't seen much on her. Of course the media must honor the family's privacy. You know, sortof like they have with the Bush daughters.

Her name is Rosemary and she was born mentally retarded. The way I heard it, the lobotomy was intended to deal with her promiscuity and other wild behavior.
