Céline Dion is one of the most recognized artists in the history of music. The singer, winner of five Grammy awards, is not going through a good time, since she currently continues to fight against the rigid person syndrome, a diagnosis that she announced that she suffered from in December of last year. Since then, it has been her sister Claudette who has been explaining at what point the artist’s health is, acting as her spokesperson. In the last few hours, she has given a new report again.
One of the big doubts among fans of the singer of songs like My heart will go on or Because you loved me was whether this syndrome had affected her incredible voice. Now Claudette wanted to solve this mystery and has given more details about how her older sister is doing. Some details that have reassured her fans. “Those who claim that my sister’s voice has disappeared are wrong. She has sung several notes to me on the phone and her voice is still the same. I felt very happy and calm listening to her,” the 74-year-old woman expressed in an interview. for the Canadian program 7Jours.
The artist’s sister assures that she continues to trust the entire medical team that surrounds her, and hopes that she can overcome the illness she is fighting. “We send our little sister all our love, and she trusts, like me, that she is capable of overcoming this ordeal,” she expressed in the interview. “We know that her illness is especially difficult to treat, but she is surrounded by a great team of specialists and she is working hard for it,” she continued to explain.
“I have complete confidence in the medical team, my little sister is incredibly strong and is doing well,” said Claudette, in an attempt to reassure all of Céline’s unconditional followers. The truth is that in the past, the artist’s sister reported that she suffered from pain due to stiff person syndrome, and she revealed the symptoms that she has been suffering from all this time.
“Do you know that people usually jump up at night because of a cramp in their leg or calf? It’s a bit like that, but in all the muscles,” Claudette expressed to Hello! Canada, about the singer’s symptoms. “There is little we can do to support her, to alleviate her pain,” she continued, saddened by the situation. Furthermore, the family feels sad because they are aware that “very little” is known about this disease, which makes the recovery process difficult.
