Céline Dion’s sister shares heartbreaking update on singer’s health battle

Céline Dion‘s sister has revealed a heartbreaking update on the singer’s health as she continues to seek treatment for stiff-person syndrome.

Speaking with Le Journal de Montréal, Claudette Dion said that another of their sisters, Linda, had moved in with Céline to help with her care.

The 55-year-old chanteuse first revealed her diagnosis of stiff-person syndrome (SPS) to the public last December, saying the disease does not allow her “to sing the way I’m used to.”

Since then, she has gone on to cancel the rest of her world tour, which was supposed to take the singer to Europe and the U.K. this fall and next spring.

“I’m so sorry to disappoint all of you once again,” Dion, 55, said in a May 26 statement. “I’m working really hard to build back my strength, but touring can be very difficult even when you’re 100 per cent.

I’m so sorry to disappoint all of you once again… and even though it breaks my heart, it’s best that we cancel everything until I’m really ready to be back on stage… I’m not giving up… and I can’t wait to see you again!” – Celine xx… More info
