In a recent interview with “Vogue,” Grammy winner Celine Dion revealed that she is living with Stiff Person Syndrome, also known as SPS, a rare neurological disease that causes muscle stiffness and spasms, hypersensitivity to stimuli, and emotional stress triggers. Despite hoping for a miracle cure, Dion has learned to focus on accepting her medical condition rather than dwelling on why it happened.
Dion has been taking time off from her professional commitments since December 2022 after announcing her diagnosis. Since then, she has halted performances and tours to focus on managing her condition through physical therapy, vocal treatments, and athletics. The singer emphasized the importance of working hard to maintain her physical and vocal health while receiving top-tier medical care that she can afford.
Though uncertain about returning to live performances, Dion remains optimistic about her future. She expressed gratitude for the love and support from her fans and family members alongside first-class medical care as sources of strength. Dion plans to take each day as it comes and remain determined to follow her dreams.
A documentary titled “Me: Celine Dion” is set for release on Prime Video later this year. The film will chronicle the singer’s journey as she navigates life with the disease. Despite the challenges she faces, Dion remains committed to living authentically and openly while showcasing her resilience and determination to overcome obstacles.
