If you I look back at pictures taken of me 5 years before any sign of PD
you can tell then that I had a masked face. I had a blank stare and a
drooping mouth. Those were pictures taken of me with me not knowing it was
going to be taken. If it were a posed picture I looked fine. The smile was
there. I bet if a lot of us look back at old pictures they may see the same
thing.
