Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
The symptoms are suggestive of brain stroke of the left side. Left side of brain controls the right side of body and speech. This explains her symptoms.
She would benefit from physiotherapy and speech therapy.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Best wishes,
