  • motorboatinfun don't you get it? She has a disorder. It's not because she's dumb. She has wiring that's mixed up in her brain. It has nothing to do with dumb. You sound like the dumb one here. Get a clue.

  • I dont understand this. My understanding of Wernicke's Aphasia (ive read up on it for a full 3 or 4 hours now!!!) is that it affects speech comprehension. So how is she able to follow the instructions?

  • What a sweet lady. Still, every time I see her speak it intrigues me. =)

  • @IDrinkYourMilkshake8 Wernicke's Aphasia is a damage to the Wenicke's Area of the auditory association cortex. She is at the stage where she can slightly understand whats going on and whats being spoken to her but she cant make sense of her sentences because she lacks concrete nouns. Her's evidently isnt completely shattered to the point where she cant identify spoken speech

  • Conduction aphasia?

  • @IDrinkYourMilkshake8 Not all brain damage is the same. She CAN comprehend simple things, but other things are harder to comprehend.

  • @IDrinkYourMilkshake8: It's not a pure form of Wernicke's Aphasia. It's nearly impossible to have one clear disorder when it comes to brain dysfunctions.

  • @mysterymeat3 no I'm sure there are other immature people that laugh at this...

  • HA!
