Celine Dion has a rare disease, can't find a cure, is it possible to take a permanent break from singing?

Celine Dion recently revealed she is suffering from a rare disease, one in 1 million people, and no medicine has been found. Her sharing made fans both shocked and heartbroken.

In December 2022, the owner of the hit " My Heart Will Go On" - Celine Dion suddenly announced a serious illness, leaving audiences around the world bewildered. Currently, after a period of fighting with illness, relatives Celine Dion said that she is struggling because there is no special medicine, so the singer's health situation seems to be only moderated without recovery. However, the singer and his family have not given up hope, believing things will get better.

Singer Celine Dion has SPS (Stiff-Person Syndrome). Accordingly, this disease seriously affects the central nervous system (brain and spinal cord), causing the patient to have muscle stiffness, which will then continue to spread and cause stiffness in all organs in the body.

According to Johns Hopkins Medicine, Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) is often triggered by environmental factors such as sudden movement, cold temperatures, or unexpectedly loud noises. The disease is considered rare, the incidence is only about 1 per 1,000,000 people. Currently, there is no definitive treatment for the disease.

In an interview with Le Journal de Montreal, Claudette revealed that despite working with "leading researchers in the field," Celine Dion's health did not improve much.

"We can't find any drugs that work, but having hope is important," Claudette said.

Earlier, Celine Dion shared while trying to hold back tears. "I've been dealing with issues related to my health for a very long time. It's hard for me to sit here and talk about what I'm going through." Also in the video, Celine shares more details about the problems she has with the disease, including mobility.

According to her sister, singer Celine Dion is currently facing difficulties in finding drugs to treat her rare disease. Despite the difficulties, Celine remained steadfast on her healing journey. She recently received help from her sister Linda Dion, who has been with her to care for and help her since her illness. "The disease made it difficult for Celine to walk, she couldn't even use her vocal cords to sing the way she used to," the singer's sister choked up.

According to her sister Celine, the singer still needs to rest, not being able to return to the stage. Claudette said: "At one point, your heart and body are trying to tell you something. It's important to listen to your body."

Her sister Linda has also moved into Celine's home to care for the singer. Over the phone, Linda shared with Claudette that Celine Dion is actively seeking treatments and collaborating with leading researchers in the field studying the disease.

Although Celine Dion's condition has not improved, the family is confident that things will get better.

After discovering the disease, from 2021, Celine Dion was forced to cancel her Courage World Tour. The muscle spasms made it difficult for her to walk and affected her vocal cords. The Canadian star spends time at home taking care of her health and treatment.

"I honestly think she mostly needs a break. She always went above and beyond, always trying to be the best and at the top of her game," Claudette said in the interview.

In May, the My Heart Will Go On singer announced on Instagram she was once again having to cancel overseas concerts during her 2023 and 2024 Courage World Tour. "I'm so sorry to disappoint you again. I'm working hard to regain my strength, but touring can be very difficult even if you put in 100% effort. It's not fair to you guys and even though it breaks my heart, the best thing right now is to cancel shows until I'm really ready to get back on stage."
