..................She lost the ability to REMEMBER and the ability to move her left arm and leg.........................
The right temporal lobe of the brain is the one responsible for memory. It processes memory, integrating them with the sensation of sound, taste, sight and touch. If the temporal lobe is affected, memory will not be processed again and the affected person will suffer memory loss.
