In her final scene, it seems Gillian has been operated on. I don't understand why or what kind of operation has taken place. Could someone explain, please?
Just forget you ever saw it. It's better that way.
That Doctor Cotton was a real life doctor, who "cured" women with mental problems by operating on them and removing organs or teeth for example. If I remember correctly, from Gillian her womb was removed? Terrible
That was real? I saw that movie, I thought it was bullsh*t
Of course it's logical. They were actually fairly accurate in their assessment of the source of the problems --hormonal-- they just didn't know how to address them properly.
She had a hysterectomy because at that time women who were insane -- were treated as hormonal basket cases. Doctors literally removed their ovaries etc thinking it would cure them.
At that point Gillian was probably drugged and abused as well. She wasn't even aware of what NUCKY was telling her
