Celine Dion recently shared an emotional update about her health, revealing she suffers from a rare neurological disorder known as stiff-person syndrome, which has led her to reschedule some of her tour dates to 2024.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Dion wrote, “I have been struggling with health issues for a while… It pains me to inform you that I will not be prepared to resume my European tour in February.”
Stiff-person syndrome is an autoimmune movement disorder affecting the central nervous system, characterized by stiffness and spasms in the body muscles, significantly impacting Dion’s ability to sing and walk.
Despite the challenges, she remains committed to managing her symptoms with the help of her medical team, emphasizing the severity of her condition, which affects roughly one in every million people and currently has no known cure. Dion’s openness about her diagnosis aims to prioritize her health while keeping her fans informed of her journey towards recovery.
