It is not clear what the future holds for Céline Dion, but the hopes of the artist’s return to the stage remain high, according to Claudette: “It is true that in her and my dreams the goal is to return to the stage. In In what way? We don’t know. There are those who have lost hope because it is a disease that is not very well known.

The first spasms and the long journey towards the diagnosis

It was the end of 2022 when Céline Dion announced to the world with a post on Instagram that she was suffering from stiff person syndrome or SPR (in English Stiff person syndrome or stiff-man syndrome), a rare neuropathology with progressive onset that mainly affects women , twice as often as in men: “These spasms affect every aspect of my daily life, sometimes causing difficulty when walking and not allowing me to use my vocal cords to sing as I usually do.”
The ordeal for the Canadian artist began in 2020, when the 55-year-old was forced to cancel all the concerts scheduled for her Courage World Tour due to terrible spasms and muscle pain. On that occasion, however, she did not yet have the disease that struck her. Two years and many tests later the diagnosis arrived together with the confirmation that, to date, there is no real cure for that syndrome which causes muscle pain, stiffness of the chest and limbs, but also cramps, spasms and asthenia.
