“[Celine] lost control of her muscles”, Claudette shared.

STIFF PERSON SYDROME DIAGNOSIS

In December 2022, Celine Dion announced in a statement that she would have to cancel the remainder of her “Courage” world tour due to the progressive and incurable neurological disorder. She noted that the neurological disorder in question is one that attacks one’s muscles, including vocal cords and the heart, as reported by Page Six.

“The vocal cords are muscles, and the heart is also a muscle. This is what comes to get me. Because it’s one out of a million case, the scientists haven’t done that much research because it didn’t affect that many people”, Claudette also shared.

Claudette has also shared how so many people have reached out to Celine, sending their love and well wished to the artist.

“If only you knew the number the number of messages the foundation gets about Celine! People tell us they love her and they’re praying for her. She gets so many messages, presents and blessed crucifixes”, Celine added.
