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 non-family alike, until 1962.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eElizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff (Liz) and her parents were likely the first non-Kennedy family members to visit Rosemary following her lobotomy. Liz was niece to Rosemary's caretaker, Sister Paulus, a Catholic nun at St. Colleta, and she visited Rosemary on a regular basis for the next thirty-four years. Through their friendship, Liz discovered the person many had forgotten or never known.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn 2015, ten years after Rosemary's death, Liz came forward with a fascinating book about the hidden daughter of America's royal Kennedy family. \"The Missing Kennedy: Rosemary Kennedy and the Secret Bonds of Four Women\" is truly unique. It is an eyewitness account of Rosemary's post-lobotomy years, the first published by a non-family member, and it's augmented by nearly 100 never-before-seen pictures of Rosemary after she was lobotomized.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLiz can shed considerable light on so many questions, the four biggest being: \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhy did no one visit Rosemary for more than two decades?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat quality of life did Rosemary lead after her lobotomy?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat should have been the correct diagnosis of Rosemary's pre-lobotomy condition?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAnd in what ways did immense good come from Rosemary's tragic life? \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis touching story of the intersection of two families will leave you with a unique portrait of the missing, but not forgotten, Kennedy. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-188116\"\u003eElizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bancroft Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/06\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781610881753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1610881753\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-BIO\"\u003eBiography \u0026amp; Autobiography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cacorrectionsbookstore.com\/\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-BIO022000\"\u003eWomen\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eElizabeth Koehler-Pentacoff was born and raised in rural Wisconsin, but left the Midwest for college in California and has returned only for family visits.
