Singer Celine Dion says being diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) is one of the "hardest experiences of my life" in an emotional Instagram post.
"As many of you know, in the fall of 2022, I was diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS)," the "My Heart Will Go On" singer wrote on Instagram, in recognition of International SPS Awareness Day.
"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," she continued. "I am deeply grateful for the love and support from my kids, family, team and all of you!"
The moving Instagram caption accompanied a photo of the singer posing alongside her three children—René-Charles Angélil, 23, and 13-year-old twins Eddy and Nelson.
