Showbiz.– The artist Céline Dion, 55, faces a difficult situation after being diagnosed last December with stiff person syndrome, a rare autoimmune neurological disorder that causes involuntary contraction of muscles and affects the vocal cords.

Her sister Claudette, who had already expressed her hope a few days ago to see the interpreter recovered by singing again on stage, has spoken again about her condition, news that shows that she is dealing with a very difficult situation. In fact, another of her sisters, Linda, has moved in with her to help her now.

“We didn’t find any medicine that works, but keeping hope is important,” he said. “I think that above all he needs rest. He always gives himself to the maximum in each of his performances” he added. She explained that the singer is very aware of the investigations and the advances that are made in reference to her ailment and that they trust that there will soon be a rehabilitation that will bear her fruit. Their wish is for the Canadian to get back on stage, the place where she has shone for decades.

“Acting is something innate to her, she is very disciplined in every facet of her life,” said Claudette. She has also recounted that when Céline cannot speak to her on the phone, it is her sister Linda who keeps her informed about her evolution. “When I call Céline and she is busy, I talk to my sister Linda who is with her and she tells me that she is working very hard,” she told Le Journal de Montreal.

In May 2022, the artist canceled her world concert tour, a moment in which fans turned to her to send her all their support. In December her difficult diagnosis was known.

She herself has spoken candidly about her state of health. “We’re still learning about this rare condition, now we know this is what’s been causing all the spasms I’ve been having.”

The author of My heart will go on pointed out that the spasms affect all aspects of her life: «It affects my daily life, the pains make it difficult for me to walk and the inflammations do not allow me to use my vocal cords to sing».
