Right Frontal Infarct "what is it"?

The brain is an extremely complex organ that controls various body functions. If a stroke occurs and blood flow can't reach the region that controls a particular body function, that part of the body won't work as it should.

If the stroke occurs toward the back of the brain, for instance, it's likely that some disability involving vision will result. The effects of a stroke depend primarily on the location of the obstruction and the extent of brain tissue affected.

Right Brain
The effects of a stroke depend on several factors, including the location of the obstruction and how much brain tissue is affected. However, because one side of the brain controls the opposite side of the body, a stroke affecting one side will result in neurological complications on the side of the body it affects. For example, if the stroke occurs in the brain's right side, the left side of the body (and the left side of the face) will be affected, which could produce any or all of the following:

Paralysis on the left side of the body
Vision problems
Quick, inquisitive behavioral style
Memory loss

What makes me Happy

I like Taylor Swift, Meagan Trainor, Becky G and listening to Radio Disney.

I like to Travel on road trips with the family, have been to 15 states. On one of our trips we ended up in Monroe Louisiana in front of DUCK Dynasty's warehouse was so cool.

I like fashion, music and decorating my room in Black, Pink and Zebra. I collect TSUM TSUMs, (google it, they are so cute) and horses.

I WANT to go to Disney World and the Star Wars Land and the Toy Story Land. They are new. I have not been to Disney World since I was TWO.. think I deserve to go back.. Please Please Please..

I like Dolphins alot and I have seen them upclose on a Ferry in Galveston Texas. It was so cool seeing them swimming by the Ferry and jumping out of the water.

I love my cat Tinkerbell, she gives me kisses.

I want to go to Washington DC and see the Monuments and do what mommy says- "Be the tourist".
