22. Tel: ascending sensory information ends up.

24. thalamus functions as the main relay station for most sensory messages–visual, auditory, skin sensory, and taste. Note that olfactory information is not included in this list.

25. “Below the thalamus lies the hypothalamus, a small structure about the size of two peanuts on the underside of your brain. If you had a tumor near the hypothalamus, the surgeon would approach it through the roof of your mouth, which should give you some idea of where it is.”

“Pituitary,” he says, “comes from pituita, meaning ‘phlegm,’ or to put it less politely, ‘snot.’ Can you guess why the early anatomists named it ‘snot gland?’”

40. bodily senses— touch, pain, pressure, temperature, and body position.

41. . . . I was asked to see him because he constantly fell out of bed at night for which the cardiologists could find no reason. When I asked him what happened at night he said quite openly that when he woke he always found that there was a dead, cold, hairy leg in bed with him which he could not understand but could not tolerate and he, therefore, with his good arm and leg pushed it out of bed and naturally, of course, the rest of him followed. there.

42. He was such an excellent example of this complete loss of awareness of his limb but, interestingly enough, I could not get him to tell me whether his own leg on that side was in bed with him because he was so caught up with the unpleasant foreign leg that was
