Adele has difficulty with forming words, making sentences etc, she has also lost sensation on the right side her body.

Just want to find out if i am on the right track. Would this be related to the primary motor area and the broca's speech area?

Thanks in advance.

Losing sensation of the right side means the left side is defected (it's the opposite). Since the Broca is on the left side, it's a safe bet

Thanks, also could you help me with the sensation part of the question?

What i have come up with so far is: The posterior and anterolateral pathways from the primary somatosensory have been damaged causing loss of sensation.

Is this right or anywhere near??   Confounded Face

Not sure about the primary motor area. I think the Broca's speech area is more accurate. My answer is biased because I'm not too educated on the primary motor area.
