Famous Canadian vocalist Céline Dion is still battling stiff person syndrome, an uncommon neurological condition that impairs her muscles. Céline’s illness alarmed her older sister, Claudette, who disclosed that her sister “doesn’t have control over her muscles.”
Although she has a strong work ethic and wants to go back on stage, there are a lot of obstacles because the disease is degenerative and incurable. Claudette highlighted that because this ailment affects only one person out of every million, there has been very little research done on it.Sick person syndrome patients may experience severe movement impairments or even become “human statues.”
