Flowers For Algernon- My thoughts

Charlie was a mentally-challenged man, until he decided to take up the experiment which would triple his brainpower. He became smarter after on, of course, but the selfish doctors did not inform him that the effects of the operation would not be permanant nor even last long. They only cared about getting the experiment done and not about Charlie. I feel that it is tuly wrong of them to do this. Charlie is the one who will be suffering if the operation were not succesful! Anyway, Charlie took up the experiment without even considering the consequences. He just wants to be smarter...
Alright. Let's come back to Charlie again. Why did Charlie take up the experiment? It is because he wants more knowledge, so that he can be accepted by his friends. But, at the end, was he accepted by his friends? Apparently not! Charlie was not even a slight bit happier after the experiment! Now he has really made a grave mistake and an obviously wrong choice...
