Howard Dully - "My Lobotomy" via Damn Interesting
"Howard Dully, the boy who underwent the procedure at age twelve, is now a fifty-six year old bus driver in California who has spent his life feeling "like a freak, ashamed." He is tortured with thoughts of how the operation altered his mind and his soul. His story, called "My Lobotomy," describes his exploration into the history of Dr. Freeman's operations, and more specifically, his own. It's an amazing listen."
