The “My Heart Will Go On” hit singer announced her battle with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS) in late 2022. The disorder affects the central nervous system and causes muscle spasms. SPS is extremely rare, affecting one in a million people. It causes acute pain and difficulty in movement.
“The spasms affect every aspect of my daily life, sometimes making it difficult for me to walk and not allowing me to use my vocal cords to sing the way I’m used to,” Dion explained when she announced her illness in December of 2022.
