What a great job you're doing Graeme. Thank you for covering this thoughtfully. Celine just showed us why she's the icon she is. We love love her even more.

I have an autoimmune disorder myself and I cried for Celine when I watched this. I cried for all of us who have to deal with this incurable monster inside of us. Celine has all the money in the world, yet she is as helpless as I am. It's not fair, it's not humane, it's brutal, painful, and cruel, yet we live through it somehow. I am glad she shared this moment, as Selma Blair and many others share their struggles so openly. Autoimmune disorders, so much is not known, so much is not researched. So many questions, but no answers.

@@bridgeta6956 What state are you in? In Massachusetts I have not found a doctor in the past 10 years who prescribe pain medications. I have been willing to sign demeaning drug contracts, do PT until my knee surgeon said no more. (He doesn't prescribe pain meds even after surgery. My spine doctor is forcing me to have injects which are painful. I am in pain 24/7. My injuries are fully documented. I cannot believe people in the US are receiving pain medications.

I cried for her,I just wanted to hug this extremely kind human being that was in so much pain and all she cares about is everyone else. A woman like this should not have this kind of pain ever. No one should, but this broke my heart to know she deals with this everyday and that’s not even mentioning her grief over what’s happening to her ability to share her voice. It’s okay to rest Celine it’s okay to get well. You’ve given all your life now let the world take care of you.

This made me emotional just by watching I relate. I just started having seizures about three years ago and they have progressively gotten worse. I’m only 17, my life hasn’t even completely progressed yet and I’m already held back from so much. It began with two seizures. I was awake through them and they were the most painful things I had experienced, just laying there trying to call out to my mother when I physically just couldn’t. I later started having tonic clonic seizures (during sleep), waking up on the floor, hitting my head or my face on the ground, biting my mouth or tongue, waking up embarrassed with family or paramedics around me. It’s all hard for me, and I hope the best for Céline.

Celine came to us raw, and it takes courage to do that… I know I couldn’t. My brother has seizures, which is a bit similar but not the same. There is a helplessness you feel as you wait for the process their body is going through. She was brave to show her true self, and even raw, with no makeup, hair color untouched, all of her age and pain showing, I never found her more beautiful, and I am in awe of her. Like a little child I ask myself “why, why does it seem that all the good people suffer?". This woman shows humility, respect for her fans and workers, she seems to feel with a deepness that she expresses through her voice and music. She lost the love of her life that was her husband, and of all the diseases she could get, she gets something like this?

My prayers are with you Ms Celine. You are so so beautiful, bellissima❤! Since you started in music and became known to us outside of Canada, I have watched you grow into this amazing, gifted, beautiful, lovely woman and person overall. You have blessed us with your music, your voice, you’ve shared with your fans tidbits of your life for which we are grateful and I pray that you can feel our love and admiration for you. Your heart cannot be contained just like your voice cannot be trapped or contained either. GOD IS WITH YOU ALWAYS. ~ Myra💗

I had that too, it ended up being a low Ferritin level and I had heme iron blood infusions even though my iron levels were normal. If the Ferritin is below 60 it could be a reason why you get this. Just another thing to check. Hope you overcome this one day as I did. Also, my stiff person syndrome came after a stomach virus, extreme stress, emotional trauma that left me sick and unable to eat for a long time. I suffered for years, was suicidal, this was the worst thing I’ve ever experienced on earth. I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

What's our “Creator" ’s deal with karma for a person like that to suffer so much? What I found strange was that the therapist told her that the seizure came after she felt too excited during the song she was recording. 🤔 (These doctors don't have a freakin clue) she needs a good hypnotherapist trained in the Dave Elman mind model. And then when she comes back from her attack, he lets her get all worked up singing and almost dancing. WHAT!!! If this was the case, that it's excitement and adrenaline that stimulate her nervous system and trigger the spasms, she must remain calm and relaxed, especially after an attack. A good hypnotherapist would jump at the opportunity to regress the person during the crisis. Because it is in these moments of pain that the subconscious mind is most receptive to hypnotic suggestions to seek out the main cause. Traditional medicine prefers injections and pills to quell the symptoms and keep them inside to fester.
