Celine Dion’s family has shared a health update, and sadly it’s not looking good.
The Canadian superstar is battling a rare, incurable neurological disorder called Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS). Recently, Celine’s loved ones have spoken out about not being able to find any medication to alleviate the symptoms or help with pain management.Speaking to Hello Magazine, Celine Dion’s sister Claudette revealed that their family was “praying for a miracle.”
She said of the star’s SPS battle: “It’s an illness we know so little about. There are spasms – they’re impossible to control. There’s little we can do to support her, to alleviate her pain.”
Last month, Claudette told Le Journal de Montreal, that the 55-year-old singer was not faring well. Celine is currently being cared for by her other sister Linda at her Las Vegas mansion. She’s also in consultation with medics on how to treat SPS.

Celine – who is the youngest of 14 brothers and sisters – has three children with her late husband, René Angelil.
While SPS is incurable, the effects can be slowed down by a combination of rehabilitation and medication.
