Her "freezing" also goes along with Parkinson's. She was stiff as a board leaning against the bollard. When they tried to move her, she fell. This is likely why she has had so many falls.

"The unpredictability of freezing, along with efforts by well-meaning companions to force the person with PD to move, may cause loss of balance and falls."

Yep. know that all too well. The stiff legs are classic Parkinsons. My grandfather had it and the symptoms she showed in that video are EXACTLY what my grandfather presented when he had an episode.
