Description
Howard Dully's memoir is a deeply personal account of his tumultuous childhood, his experiences with lobotomy, and his quest for redemption. At just twelve years old, Dully underwent a life-changing procedure that would have far-reaching consequences for his mental health and relationships. Dully's story is one of abandonment, struggle, and ultimately, self-discovery. After being institutionalized and later jailed, he spent decades trying to rebuild his life, only to be left with a profound sense of disconnection and confusion. As he grew older, Dully became determined to uncover the truth about his past and the events that led to his lobotomy. Through meticulous research and personal investigation, Dully finally came face to face with the truth about his past, including the role of the doctor who performed his procedure and the circumstances surrounding his family's involvement. This powerful memoir is a testament to the human spirit's ability to persevere in the face of adversity and to seek justice and closure.
