Dion, 56, announced in 2022 her diagnoses with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare autoimmune neurological disorder that causes muscle stiffness and uncontrollable spasms.
Her struggles have been documented in the new Amazon Prime release I Am: Céline Dion – a heartbreaking look at the superstar’s daily life since making the decision to withdraw from the public eye while coming to terms with SPS and its debilitating effects.
