Question...RE: Mask.. Is there anything that can be done to keep the mask face from happening too quickley? Did you do anytype of "face exercises"? We're new to this. I've been having my husband practice smiling, frowning, all the expression type of things. We're also keeping a once a month log of his handwriting to see when/if we notice a change and compare it with how he is feeling/doing. I'm determined to help him in anyway I can. I look forward to my e-mail for helps/answers to this disease. 3 from my office sent Udell cards. Do we have e-mail addresses for any of the congressmen? I would be willing to contact them that way or by letter. Finances prevent too many phone calls. I encourage my husband all I can. He has been having little strokes along with the PD. I think right now, they may be worse than the PD. I have noticed that he does much better when he walks or works out in the yard. We just bought the lot next to ours and he has been cleaning it up, a little at a time. His only complaint so far is not sleeping all night and constipation. Sorry I've rambled....It is good to not feel like you're alone in the world, but can talk with others. He has put up with me for 32 years and the past 17 I have had Lupus and Fibermyalgia, so I am determined to help him in everyway I can. thanks, nancy [log in to unmask]
