The temporal lobe is the main area for premature auditory processing and a high-level visual processing area. The frontal lobes are located on the front and the top area of the brain.

Parietal Lobe The brain is a fascinating yet complicated structure. Without it our involuntary functions while we sleep and our natural reflexes would vanish. Every part of our nervous system works together‚ it becomes one whole. One fundamental part of our brain‚ that is probably one of the most important to the disabled‚ is the Parietal Lobe which receives impulses that control one of our most important senses; touch. The Parietal Lobe is located near the center of the brain‚ behind the frontal lobe

dementia. At the time this degeneration was referred to as Pick’s disease‚ a term allegedly coined by one of his pupils (Weder‚ et al‚ 2007)‚ and related to the progressive destruction of neurons mainly in the frontal and temporal lobes of the brain. This condition has subsequently been designated Frontal-Temporal Dementia (FTD)‚ and is considered second only to Alzheimer’s disease in terms of the most common cause of dementia (Pasquier & Petit‚ 1997).
