“As many of you know, in the fall of 2022, I was diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS),” she captioned the post. “Trying to overcome this autoimmune disorder has been one of the hardest experiences of my life, but I remain determined to one day get back onto the stage and to live as normal of a life as possible. I am deeply grateful for the love and support from my kids, family, team and all of you!”
Celine concluded, “I want to send my encouragement and support to all those around the world that have been affected by SPS. I want you to know you can do it! We can do it!”
Back in December 2023, Celine Dion‘s sister gave an update on the singer’s condition amid her Stiff Person Syndrome battle.
