A few months ago, the famous singer Celine Dion shared with her fans her suffering from Stiff-Person Syndrome, a revelation that left her followers worried about the health of the artist, who has paused her career to take care of herself, wishing to know more about what she is experiencing.
Stiff-Person Syndrome is a disease characterized by muscle rigidity that affects the central nervous system and is associated with muscle spasms and increased sensitivity to external stimuli that worsen contractions.
In recent days, Claudette, the singer’s older sister, spoke with the showbizz.net media, where she talked about the artist’s rare disease and what steps she is following to ensure she has a better quality of life despite her illness.
Despite this diagnosis of a rare disease and the fact that until then it had no cure, the sister declared, “I know that morally and mentally, she is so strong. Actually, she is not sad; on the contrary, she is very happy”.
In addition, she has assured that the interpreter of ‘My Heart Will Go On’ is confident that she will come out of this with her goal set in returning to her normal life: “We will get through this; I am listening to everything the professionals are telling me, and I am doing it judiciously because I want to return“.
