This fear of falling can even make them reluctant to leave their homes.We continue to wish Dion the very best with her health journey.I Am: Celine Dion begins steaming on June 25 only on Prime Video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Celine Dion has shared herself at her most vulnerable amid her ongoing battle with Stiff Person Syndrome. &nbsp; The 56-year-old Canadian singer shared her heartbreaking diagnosis back in 2022, telling fans: \u201cI wasn\u2019t ready&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2069,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
