Claudette Dion, speaking to 7 Jours, expressed her sorrow, emphasizing how Celine's disciplined and hard-working nature, instilled by their late mother, had been a key to her success. Now, the very success that Celine achieved through her diligence is under threat due to the relentless progression of Stiff-Person Syndrome.
While the future remains uncertain, Claudette mentioned that it might be a considerable amount of time before Celine can make a triumphant return to the stage. Despite the grim outlook, Celine's determination to perform again persists, though the form it may take remains uncertain.
Research into Stiff-Person Syndrome is ongoing, but its rarity poses a challenge, slowing down progress. Claudette expressed frustration, noting that many facing the same condition have "lost hope" of a cure ever being found.

This update follows Claudette's previous statement to HELLO! Canada in September, where she conveyed Celine's relentless efforts to overcome the disease. However, the uncontrollable spasms have proven to be a formidable obstacle in her path to recovery.

Remarkably, after three and a half years of being out of the public eye, Celine was recently spotted at a hockey game between the Vegas Golden Knights and her hometown Montreal Canadiens, appearing in good spirits despite her health challenges.
