Peyton felt strange when she awoke one morning. She could not hold a pen in her right hand when trying to write an entry in her diary, and her muscles were noticeably weaker on the right side of her body. Additionally, her husband noticed that she was slurring her speech, so he took her to the emergency room. What does the ER physician suspect has occurred? Where in the brain might the physician suspect that abnormal activity or perhaps a lesion is located, and why?
Following a stroke Dr. Z was unable to recognize the members of his family when shown their portrait. It was different when he was in their physical presence, because then if he heard them speak or saw them move in particular ways he could identify them. Where is the most likely site of brain damage?
