Rosie Kennedy at 1962 Ball with Family 🎉

Rosemary Kennedy, the eldest daughter of Joseph and Rose, had her life destroyed because of the fear and ignorance of her father. Joe wanted her out of sight as his pushed his son toward the presidency, hiding her away in convents and sanitariums. The radical experimental surgery on his 23-year-old daughter was based on a misdiagnosis. She was not mentally retarded as Joe was told by a ruthless and irresponsible doctor but learning disabled. Rosemary spent more than 50 years living in a Wisconsin hospital cared for by a nun when she could have been treated with therapy. There are no photos of her brothers JFK or Bobby visitng their sister after her surgery.
