Celine Dion has revealed that she has been diagnosed with an incurable neurological condition, Stiff Person Syndrome.

The music icon shared the news with her fans on Instagram on December 8, saying the symptoms affect “every aspect" of her daily life.

She said the rare condition has been causing spasms which affect her ability to perform and sing.

Addressing the camera, the singer said it's been "really difficult" to face the challenge, but is ready to talk about it now.

Eight of her summer shows scheduled for 2023 have been cancelled.

So sad, I can relate to this, living  with an incurable disease is so hard, but you just have to live life day by day as it goes by (Cancer sucks)...

It's just sad #stiffpersonsyndrome is painful torture and hard to live with

But what is more tragic that she hasn't been honored with Kenedy center, honorary Oscar or anything else that she deserve for her immense impact of pop culture.

why honor people when they are gone
