No offense to the other Kennedy sisters, but Rosemary was the prettiest of them. God bless her and sister, Eunice. Their memory will always be a blessing
I agree she was stunning and the prettiest of the sisters but her story was the saddest of all the siblings so sad how she was treated.
Yes she was, there was a beautiful light from her eyes….
@@jessicamarie8299 After Kathleen died Rosemary became the only elder sister that Eunice has. 🤔🤔🤔
SHE WAS THE PRETTIEST 😍
Same thing I was thinking. Rosemary was very pretty.
God bless Eunice Kennedy for starting special Olympics and being a huge help to her sister rosemary
Rosemary was physically beautiful, inside her light shines from her heart out through her eyes.
Thank y Eunice for helping society realize that major changes needed to happen to help people with disabilities by giving them a huge opportunity
she's amazing woman I took care of mentally disabled adults and we would bring them to the special Olympics and they love it even to this day thank you so much Mrs Kennedy shriver
I've read so much about the Kennedy's over so much years, and Eunice was always my favorite, it seems that Rosemary remembered alot of what Eunice had done for her, in her later years, Rosemary showed it in the pics taken later.
Eunice Kennedy Shriver was a wonderful person! The bond between sisters is so precious!
beautiful video. Rosemary, you legacy lives on. Bless you Eunice Kennedy and all that work to include those of us w special needs! You rock!
Thank you EFTSoulPath Laurel Brookes #ChooseToInclude
Thank you Eunice for loving your Sister and making a différence for all those who have Developmental Disabilities. May you and RoseMary be kept in our Heavenly Father's Eternal Loving Embrace.
Eunice Kennedy Shriver was a wonderful person. Thank you, Mrs. Kennedy Shriver, for founding the Special Olympics.
Joe Kennedy would never visit his daughter again after that lobotomy. Reading her letters to him how she missed him when she was at camp is heartbreaking. Joe was IMO an overrated father for the simple fact of abandoning his daughter for the remaining period of his life.
Yes, I think he was a true narcissist
What a heartless man . Always thinking solely about advancing and moving up the ladder at any cost . How could he do that to this innocent girl only because she had lower IQ ? Frying her brain out and force her into a vegetated state ? So sad . So sad.
@@westcoastgirl The reason why rosemary was developmentally delayed was because when rose was in labor the dr was late so the nurse pushed Rosemarys head back up through the birth canal and told rose to squeeze her legs together until the dr arrived she laid like that for 2 hours so rosemary was deprived of oxygen. The father is a narcissist and only cared about power and money and what his family looked like to the public! I look at rosemary before the lobotomy and you see a beautiful happy woman her eyes sparkled! He didn’t even confide in his wife about the lobotomy but were talking about a narcissistic person that even ran around on his wife. Poor rosemary deprived of love from her family I believe it was 20 years before rose went and seen her daughter. Sad 😞
@@angelamartin2811I don't believe this video mentions the fact that Rosemary's dad forced her to have a lobotomy. How would her life have been different if she had not been forced to do that? Can people with a low IQ enjoy life?? Yes!!!
I think she did a lot and should be recognised for it. As for coming out about their sister rosemary that only happened after her father had a stroke and couldn't stop or keep it hidden anymore. He had the control over all of them.
Eunice was such a wonderful sister! Unlike her parents, she was always there for Rosemary and supported her. I’m sorry but I would have a really hard time forgiving my parent for lobotomizing my sibling just because they were embarrassed of them and their disability.
You have to remember that no one had any other ideas at the time about what to in this situation. Think of all those people we never heard about, whose parents didn't have money, who went the same route.
These were people of their time.
@@georgeshepherd6431 he was more concerned about his political ambition
Eunice was an amazing woman! Respect!
What a beautiful sister. God bless!
he abandoned his daughter...
😔
They glossed over the part about the forced lobotomy which made Rosemary that way. She had a great sister but terrible father. Rosemary’s story breaks my heart and so many people don’t know about her and what really happened. She was living a fairly normal life before that.
Eunice was a social worker. And Joseph Kennedy was so embarrassed of Rosemary until 1941, he sent her for unapproved treatment. Her brain was damaged and ruined. He sent her very far away to a special catholic home in Wisconsin. Sad. Until December 1961, Joseph had massive stroke and paralyzed. Lesson learned.
In reality Joseph could be considered and embarrassment to fatherhood and as time marches on he will be remembered more and more for his abandonment of his first daughter than anything else he has accomplished. Well deserving of that as well
@@jckhammer Agree. It makes me think that he’s so rich and he wants what’s best for his kids. He seems like picky, pushy, and hateful father with a bad ego including brought his mistress, Gloria Swanson to his home. And he wanted his older son to be president of the United States too. THAT IS HIS’ DREAM NOT THEIRS. Later kids got in bad luck. And in late 1961 Joseph got massive stroke and it kept him quiet. Sad.
@@rbsmith3365 good point. I forgot about his affairs. Also good point about wanting Joe jr to be president and it more about him then his sons. Reading various articles it seems Joe jr wanted more of a military or naval aircraft career over politics. In the end joe Sr was silenced and after that the real secret of Rosemary started to surface and the truth was now out
@@jckhammer That’s true. In 1920’s Joseph was running Hollywood Studio. I think it was RKO and he brought his mistress Gloria Swanson home without Rose protest. ( Rose father is catholic and says that you cannot divorce and women have no rights ). And kids have seen and met Gloria at Hyannis port home. It’s immoral. If Rose needs sex. She asks. And about Rosemary’s lobotomy practice came from Portugal which isn’t approved in U.S. It damaged her more. She was placed in a special home in Wisconsin which it still exists today. ( St Colette’s) . From 1941 until around 1962 Rose found her there and what’s next? Rosemary remembered her and she got angrier and attacked at Rose. True, maybe she thinks that mother didn’t cared about it? No. She didn’t know where she went and Rose didn’t forgive Joseph for ruining and hiding her.
And, after Joseph’s stroke and, I think that Rose went thru the payment lender book and found something there on yearly payment to St Colette’s School where Rosemary was hidden there.
I don’t understand what’s there to be embarrassed over having a special needs child. And Rosemary was the prettiest out of the sisters. When she was spotted out in pubic the press was so focused on her because she was so beautiful she stood out the most. She made her sister look so average when she would stand next to them. So sad how the life she had to endure all because of her disability.
Great woman, great human.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE SPECIAL OLYMPICS.../.
Rosemary Kennedy deserved a better life with proper help and support from her family and expert professional help
Almost made me cry. ❤
I am glad we have come far as a country
Yeah, so far... now your countrymen just inject disinfectant.
Ah Ollie is right, some things will always be hidden from the public…
believe they did the best they could for her at that time. We know so much better now, and understand medications better. It is sad but not uncommon in those days.
What a beautiful loving caring sister that made a difference! The father Joe caused a lot of pain in the family he wanted and demanded perfection while running around on his wife! The reason rosemary had developmental issues is because when rose was giving birth the nurse pushed rosemarys head back up through the birth canal and told rose to squeeze her legs together until the dr arrived well she laid like that for 2 hours deprived of oxygen. Rosemary was an embarrassment to Joe what a narcissistic parent! Kids with disabilities have a sweet innocents about them in looking at Rosemarys pictures you can see the beauty and light in her eyes. That all changed when the father without discussing it with his wife got rosemary a lobotomy procedure which took the light out of her eyes he put her in a institution to be forgotten depriving the family of where she was! I know things were different back than but Joe was a terrible heartless father!
Oh what good Eunice did with her life.
Great lady.
Eunice was unstoppable
We're still hidden
Rosemary Kennedy, fué la más bonita de todas las hermanas, lamentablemente la recluyeron muy joven á un psiquiátrico y le desgraciaron toda su vida en lugar de buscar otros medios alternativos para su supuesta enfermedad.
Que tendria? Autismo?
They helped all these other children... what about Rosemary? Could she not do anything after the lobotomy?
She did, she relearned how to walk and use her limbs and spoke some. She got better after her lobotomy because of Eunice.
I think the rest of the children were afraid of their father, if I remember a story about it. So after he became sick, then passed The family finally woke up👎👎👎
Eunice самая красивая

Thank you T N #ChooseToInclude
Did she bring Rosemary to the Shriver camp?
Really sad :(
This distorts the truth
Explain please
Agree, the father forced the lobotomy without the mother's permission. He basically destroyed his girl. He wasn't capable to love her. These are our leaders...
How so, yes she had a lobotomy which was no fault of Eunice…
❎. 4:27. cigarette ?
Seems smart enough to smoke.
🤺💐
Rosemary was a shing beauty,
And then lobotomy smh
Joe Sr. had the lobotomy of his daughter performed without the matron Rose wasn’t aware of. I personally think Rose never forgave her husband!
Shame on joe and rose Kennedy for being horrible unkind parents whom were ashamed and embarrassed of having a special needs child
joe kennedy,had alway's been a criminal.but got away,with alot of stuff.what a shame.
dafür wird er in der Hölle schmoren und nicht nur dafür auch für das betrügen seiner Ehefrau etc
The Kennedys were sick .
