The lobotomy was one radical chancing therapies developed by Dr. Walter freeman. The frontal lobotomy ex
periment was proceeded only to people that suffered with mental illness. This was being performed to shut down some emotions. As they were being prepared for the operation they were shocked with electro shocks so they could be unconscious for the time of the operations since there was no anistesia. Dr. Walter Freeman the doctor who starred preforming the operations was not a doctor neither a surgeon he was a neurologist. He performed many lobotomies he was considered the bomb for treating people with these illness. This treatment helped the patient because they entered the operation room with problems like suicidal thoughts manic or depressed problems. But they left the room with less depression and less suicidal thoughts. It may have worked for some patients but for others they had many rebounds a few months later after the operation. It was unethical because Dr. Walter just hammered in a tooth pick through the eyes and just did the operation anywhere. Some of the patients die in the operation; the last one that Dr. Walter did the patient died from a hemorrhage the brain did not stop bleeding. Then he tried to prove the world that lobotomy was effective but he couldn’t. After this he visits many patients that he had performed lobotomy but they were worst. One of his patients was Helen, she was shocked so she could sleep for the operation, placed a towel in her head and then insert a needle threw her eye. The patients were given black sun glasses so they could cover the black eyes till they went away. Dr. Walter Freedman graduated from the University of Pennsylvania from med school. He thought that the shock therapies would work but not as a cure but as only treating a patient so he started preforming the lobotomies. The discovery was in 1936, the patients did not die but they changed after the operation. The change in the patients was sometimes a good change there was no more suicidal thoughts and it removed the depression. The lobotomy was like the new big thing in medical history, it first was opening the brain but afterwards they knew how to do it without the need of opening the scalp the only inserted a toothpick through the eyes to shut down some emotions. Dr, Walter Jackson Freeman was a member of the American Psychiatric Association. He performed nearly 2500 lobotomies in 23 states. This new invention was really not ethical to the community and to the world because of all the deaths and the additional problems that the patients were suffering of a few months after the operation. In conclusion I think that this should not be done and that if it helped some people it really dint because it affecter them and the patient that was the sister of president Kennedy she had a normal life but after the operation she was really not the same person.
