The Lobotomist- Blog post #3

I think that Walter Freeman is a mad man. All of his ways of helping people were really strange even if they  work. I don't that that makes someone a good doctor just because they can fix problems. I wonder if they ients even new what he was doing to them. He had a private practice so I dont think too many people found out. Plus a  few md  later they went back to the old ways so that didn't really fix anything at all. They would have to pray. He also said it would be a last resort so how great could it really be.If people really new how he was doing this I think they would agree that he is a mad man.  It's hard to listen to the video when  they have to explain his procedures. I think the only reason why he was doing this was to be famous and have people know about him. He wouldn't ask for permission from anyone. Three people died when he was doing his operations. One of them because he had to take a picture and the ice pick slipped.  Then he would move on to his next area. People who once supported it not longer did. I think he was mostly concerned about it for the money.
