- Розваги
I was diagnosed with SPS in 2021. I also have seizures and several other illnesses. It is very tough every day. My voice has changed and I often find it difficult to talk. I couldn't imagine being a professional singer and try to continue. Bless your heart, Celine. Hang in there.
Hello,
Do you go through the spasms alone? It looks like she has a team around her?
Ciao Samanta cara , spero che tu possa avere accesso alle cure cui ha accesso Celine Dione a cui va il merito per essersi fatta coraggiosamente riprendere nei suoi momenti di estrema fragilità
Mi auguro , ora che celine lotta per tutti voi , che le cure siano fruibili a tutte le persone che soffrono di questa terribile sindrome perché le cure non devono mai essere a disposizione solo di chi può permettersele
Ti abbraccio e ti faccio i miei migliori auguri ❤😘🌸
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.
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.
And the worst part is almost all of us in pain are denied any kind of pain medication.
@@lilytheboycat thats not true. Most of us are on a pain regiment and we work with our doctors.
@@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. Google suicide rates for chronic pain patients. The numbers are brutal.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@hankmesker What is so funny?
How would people know what she is going through if we don't see that? I am glad she shared. It's not pleasant to watch but now I know..
Same with Wendy Williams.. people thought she was getting exploited but she's just trying to tell people her story
And now we all know what anybody with this disease goes through. It being such a rare disease..little effort and money is put into research..things like this can make the world aware and generate both financing and research..it was a brave and good thing of Celine to show this

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.
OMG I cried when I saw her, her body and her face. When I was in health care, I had a few patients who had this same disease and they didn’t make it. I hope Celine would let go of singing and give her body a total rest…her body is telling her that it’s extremely tired of the extreme demandes of show-business. PLEASE CELINE, LET GO, LIVE FOR YOUR BOYS, FOR YOUR FAMILY…your body can’t take it anymore…it’s telling you it will give up….CELINE, WE DO NOT WANT TO LOSE YOU ESPECIALLY LIKE THAT. WE WILL STILL LOVE YOU NO MATTER….PLEASE RECONSIDER ON RETIREMENT AND BE ALIVE! YOUR BODY CANNOT TAKE IT ANYMORE….PLEASE, LET GO AND REST….YOU WILL ALWAYS STAY THE “BEST” WORLDWIDE AND OUR CANADIEN CHAMPION!!!
Man, that was hard to watch..seeing the pain in her face. She is still a fighter - a lot of respect and empathy for Celine. A true icon.
I’m bawling watching for a second time. I don’t think I fully understood the severity of her condition until now. I can’t imagine how impossibly difficult it is for her sons to witness her in such agony.
Cry me a river.😂😂😂😂
@@hankmeskerhow about trying to put yourself in the shoes of her sons. Are you a parent? I didn’t I haven’t seen any interviews with her sons about any of it. I hope they have a good support system!
@@hankmesker Right? So annoying & insufferable.
@@sizzurpr7608 stay pressed and bitter hag
@@mariehalsey8892they are just re***ded and in their moms basement. Nothing to live for so they share their rotten energy onto other people.
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.
No one else should either
Celine, you are the bravest, most caring person in this world for real. Going through such agony and pain and wanting to show the world and help create awareness of this disease. Thank you from my heart. I pray they will find a cure for this soon or help in easing the pain, etc. God Bless you. You've been my favorite singer since I was a young girl and felt so Blessed to have someone like you here in Canada. I send my prayers and love to you.
I was a complete mess after watching the documentary... I think it was very important to show this because this is the reality. As hard as it is watching this at gives everyone a rough idea of what she's going through and what SPS means for everyone suffering from it. A big shoutout to the medical team as well. They are doing a great job in trying to calm her down and making the situation as comfortable as possible for her. Great job, guys!!
The people who say that Celine's "playing it up" obviously are heartless & horrible people with no empathy! They also DO NOT know Celine!!!! Celine is open and honest almost to a fault!!! She's always been more than just a "singer", she's most of all a beautiful person inside and out!!!
👏
I watched her documentary yesterday and I was so at loss for words cause I didn't fully understand what the condition does to someone's body. I was in tears watching when she went into an episode. I feel for anyone who has this condition and don't wish it upon anyone. Keep strong Celine, you have the whole world behind you supporting you.
Only someone not human won't be moved by this. Prayers.
This is indeed what a legend needs to show all of us of how we struggle with this disease, sps, MS, mnd
God bless Celine Dion
I know she a warrior
I wish this brings more insight to family and friends of what I’m going thru
🙏❤️🌻🍀
I love how kindly you cover things like this! Great coverage & commentary
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.
I can’t even tell you how I cried when I watched this😭😭😭😭😭. Heartbreaking…doesn’t even cover it all…So many prayers 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 for this wonderful amazing lady♥️
I really want to watch this doc, but it hurts to see her in so much pain. Thank you for doing this vids, it helps me kind of digest what she is going through. I think your vids will help me go back and watch this in whole.
@@OutofthishellGet lost
If you could handle this video...then you can handle the whole documentary. This is the hardest scene. But my favorite part is right after this crisis, what she does. It will uplift you and inspire you and you will realize what a wonderful and strong woman she is. A 10/10 film for me
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?
There are some people who do not understand what a person goes through when they are diagnosed with such suffering. The body has only a certain amount of threshold, and when the body goes past that threshold - pain sets in. I get muscle spasm and pain. I call these 'attacks.' It's the kind of muscle pain and tension that brings me to my knees. For my condition, CP (Spastic Diplegia), the pain can last from 2 weeks to months. I don't even know when my pain will hit me. I have to monitor myself. It makes me cry to know that Celine has this terrible diagnoses - Stiff Person Syndrome. I pray for Celine and hope that there will be help for people with stiff person syndrome.
God be with you Celine every single step of the way. May he give you strength, inspiration and peace. You are so beautiful, so talented and an inspiration to so many of us struggling with debilitating and painful health issues. God bless you and your beautiful family 💕🙌🕊️🙏🌹♥️
How truly heart-breaking this is for Celine! The one thing that she truly loves to do is slowly being taken away from her! I hope against all hope that she will one day sing and perform again!
My heart breaks for Ms Celine. Tears rolled down my face as I watched her endure that pain episode.
I deal w/ everyday chronic high-scale pain, there are days I can’t rise out of bed and I cry self to sleep just to not deal with pain. So I have a minuscule idea of pain.
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 found that part of the documentary extremely hard to watch. But I do think having it included will help bring more awareness of her condition.
I just randomly came across your channel, this doesn't happen to me too often but I found myself bingeing your videos, Great work thank you very much! Liked and subscribed
My 34 year old daughter died 6 months ago from this disease, rigid body syndrome, this is a very terrible disease, my daughter suffered a lot, she was the mother of two boys, ages 5 and 7, now with a lot of pain in my heart. He is resting in peace.
Sorry. You mean, she is resting.
Many prayers for you and your family. Did your daughter receive adequate pain relief?
I feel very sad for your family reading your post. As a mother, I cannot even imagine the pain of seeing my child suffering such illness. All my condoléances. May she fly high. All the very best and blessings to you and her loved ones. ❤
💉😥
Do y think Celine / Selene faces the same fate? 😮
It's painful to watch. Wonder if she will ever recover from this. She's courageous to show her ordeal😢
please please we all need to pray for her 😢😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I had no idea how bad her medical condition is.
Oh God, heal her. She made people happy with her songs. I couldn't bear what I saw
I love her ❤❤❤.
Hope she will find a way to get back on stage 🙏 ❤.
Throughout her career, Celine has been very open and willing to let the fans behind the scenes during the best times in her life, it's so much an appreciation of the love her fans have given her that she takes us into what easily is the worst time of her life so we can understand the situation and hope and pray for her wellbeing! Other stars would hide away and would never want to be seen as this vulnerable. Bless you Celine!! We are praying for you!
I am praying for you. I miss you. Get Well Soon. I love you.
Celine is a hero putting her struggle out into the world and showing us her fight. Even if she can’t take the stage again, I wish I could just walk up to her and tell her she will always be amazing.
May God Bless her and pray for her healing.
Watched this documentary with tears in my eyes the whole way through...and yes this scene was so hard to watch... much love to you celine and your boys... ❤
Celine is so brave to show us this part of her life. I truly pray for Celine and her the ppl who take care of her. Gif please send your angels to protect and comfort her as she go through these times.
I always knew she was a beautiful, kind person, after watching the documentary I have even more respect for her. She is incredibly brave, and her lack of vanity and humility is inspiring. God bless her.
👏
🙏agreed , a beautiful brave person
It was very hard to watch, but I do appreciate her openly sharing it to the world. May God help her through this struggles and grant her the ability to sing again even it is a different style. Blessings to you Celine.
I think people need to see what is a Stiff Person Syndrome looks like. We can only imagine from readings it but the harrowing visual; how bad it can be to anyone is what we should learn as well.. and how this disease took away her ability to sing is heart breaking 😭
My son have seizures like this often. One time it degenerate in status epilepticus and he had to be in induced coma in october 2023. he doesn't talk anymore because of a rare form of epilepsy and before he was singing all day. I hope the best for celine. she will have an impacted on neurology research and i hope she will sing again on stage.
I'm so sorry you're having problems, Celine. I am praying for you. You're an international treasure. We love you. God bless.🙏🙏🙏❤
Both you and Farrah. Faucet are amazing sharing and helping the world to understand❤
Thank you for your care and respect in covering this.
It’s hard to watch and hear what Celine went through. I have tears watching this video. I watched her interviews on media and it was so hard to hear everything she went through. Thanks God she is now doing well. She’s a pretty strong, determined, and amazing person. Can’t wait to see her back on the stage to empower once again the world because of her amazing unbeatable voice.
The Power to get better when you go through something like this etc. is the key to come back where you were.
she went threw hard times 😢😢😢😢we all need to pray for her 😢🙏😔😔😔😔😔😔😔😔🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Celine is a true icon to be going through what she is going through and be willing to share it, is truly 💔
If this was fake, the audience would definitely know!! As painful as this is to watch, it's raw, & it's real & it's painful as most illnesses are!!
God be with you Celine Dion!! Sending Prayers for you!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
We love you!!! ❤❤❤
Super celeb or not, THANK YOU Celine. It is such an unfamiliar illness and you have the courage to make people aware.
She is a beast! From not able to sing to singing and wanting to go on stage.
I have so much respect for her.
To come back from this...I had seizures and that alone causes me ptsd.
I was never a fan of Celine but hey it is soooooo hard & sad to see her go thrue this & I discover thrue her interview how such a Wonderfull person she is I pray for you to get well
Celine Dion, defines what the soul of an angel truly Is . God bless you in all that may come your way . Thank you so very much for living your truth.
She wanted us to see what she in struggling with. No sugar coating. Courage.
Such a brave person such an horrendous disease. I cried too , to see somebody loose the ability to do something they love so much , so very sad . Love and prayers to Celine and her family . She showed us even with this she can still sing , keep that strength 🎉
Heartbreaking film to watch. 😔 Shes one of my faves so seeing her like that was a lot.
when I saw the video of her it made me cry😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
A brilliant documentary of a truly amazing brilliant human.
Heartbreaking to watch her have that seizure. I truly hope she heals. The fact that she is going through that on a daily basis is just horrible.
My heart goes out to Celine!! I love her singing and very upset that she suffers like that!! All my love Celine and God bless and help you!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
This made me cry. As an L.M.T, to see someone in such pain with no way to really "fix" it would just be so heartbreaking.
Brave, powerful, French Canadian
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.
Celine always going to be the golden apple tree for her fans with or without golden apples. She always going to be our queen and golden apple tree🌳❤️🌳❤️🌳❤️🌳
❤🌹Celine..😢
What an incredibly brave woman to share this with the world. I wish her healing and comfort and peace and happiness.
Es una hermosa mujer y luchadora👌😔🙏🙏
She is in horrible pain. I pray she is getting pain relief. Please let people know that pain is no longer dealt with. Chronic pain patients are no longer prescribed any medication. We, the pain community, cry just like Celine. We scream like her. We beg our doctors for help. There is no help. I would never deny her pain relief. Why must I suffer?
This hurt my heart and made me cry her pain and suffering is so cruel 💔 ive been listening to celine since i was 11 im 43 now and I just think back to the good old days and now everything is shite for everyone i one way or another i suffer with fibromyalgia and just struggle daily and have no one . I know its not any consolation but im relieved she is able to afford the best medical care and help because here the nhs has just gone so awful and alot of ppl are suffering with no help or compassion and understanding or empathy ppl are treated so badly animals get better care which is great but we need help and care too 😢i love the way celines medical team there loved and looked after her and comforted her through that horrible ordeal the pain and terror in her eyes and face and her tears broke my heart shes just a beautiful humble soul ❤️ praying for you beautiful cellne i pray you get stronger every day ❤️ 😊
Graeme, you need to slow your speech. Some viewers an non English speakers and you speak like a bullet train... That is all, you are a great guy and your approach to this subject is very compassionate and we see that. Bless you.
Celine is as brave as can be, love her to bits, saw her live in concert back in the 90's in Paris and London. 💙💙 Yes, i cried watching her suffering.
you can adjust the play speed
I don’t know if you’ve noticed he has a bit of a speech impediment. I think speaking a bit faster is his way around that.
@@Rosannasfriend I didn't know. Thank you. 🙌
Jai tellement de peine pour Celine 🥲. Pourquoi quelle ne reste pas calme une vie tranquille et tout arrêter le stress de chanter ? 🥲
C’est son corps qui lui parle il n’en peut plus ,!
Pauvre Céline pitié pour elle 🥰🥰🥰. Une grande personne a l’intérieur humble et bonne ,
I love you,Celine. ❤
Poor Celine praying for this sweet talented lady she does not deserve praying for a cure for her and all🙏🙏🙏
soo sad please pray for her thank god she did not die😢😢😢😢
Praying for this beautiful soul. 💔😢🙏
This moment made her human. It equalled all of us.
I walked up and down my home contemplating whether I should watch it or not, but I'm glad I did. It was as if a member of my family was going through the seizure. It was painful to watch.
Anyone know the name of the song she's singing at the end?
Praying for Celine! We love you ! Stay strong!😢😢😢
It’s terrible to watch this, what a brave lady. Celine is selfless and this will help awareness of SPS and other sufferers. ❤❤❤
So sad that happen to her.My Idol. BE STRONG
I suffer from an autoimmune disease and I can totally relate to the pain she is experiencing…my heart aches for her. 😢
Unglaublich das Sie das durch machen muss ,ich wünsche Celine alles liebe und viel Kraft ,eine sehr starke Frau....😢❤
My love to you. I watched the documentary. My heart hurts for you…. Please look after you.
I wish that doctor wouldn't have called it a seizure. Celine herself explains in an interview that it is not actually a seizure. It is a lot of, if not all muscle groups spasming all at once.
...but she's locked in and doesn't remember it all, so l guess he doesn't know another word for it as it is as extreme as a seizure.
@@irishcountrygirl78 Her and her doctor said she is fully aware of everything around her when it is happening. That is why they have her squeeze their fingers or hand. To make sure she stays conscious. If she does not respond, then they call 911. At least that's what her doctor said in the documentary.
I wish they would have administered the nasal dose a lot sooner
I hope her having this disease and being brave enough to allow it to be filmed so up close will bring a great deal more attention. That is what prompts the call for more research and hopefully more people to give what they can. That is how progress in treatment happens. It seems awful and I hope more people can get relief.
I pray that she gets well 🙌🙏
Angels never go down easy.
What an utterly courageous woman she is.
Dear Angel, you're in our prayers. Believe God for a healing.
I haven't watched but from what I've seen on this video my heart is breaking for Celine and anyone else having this disease Like thousands I had never heard of this evil sickness
Ma belle Céline, il y a un temps pour le show et un temps pour la retraite. Maintenant que nous savons repose-toi. Nous te gardons au cœur et dans nos prières.
😥This reminded me of a seizure I had in high school. I could see and hear everything. I watched as another student faked having a seizure, while all three laughed. I would rather have seizures and black out completely then those kind. They're horrible!
Oh my gosh that is one of the most horrific things I’ve ever seen. So sad and scary and hard to watch. I’ll pray for you
I love Mrs Celine God please help the Drs find medicine for the patients that have this
How much more can she take Lord?
Please cleanse her from your blood, and heal her through your powerful healing!!🙏🏾
Wir beten 🙏 🙏 🙏 für Dich liebe Celine , Du bist starke Frau , Du hast alles gegeben für Deine Fans 💌 mach Pause , Deine Körper braucht ganz viele Ruhe , gönne Dich . 🙏🙏🙏💌💌💌 danke fürs vertrauen das du mit uns geteilt hast über Dein Leben und Gesundheit ❤
Prayers
This is what Celine wanted. It's extremely heartbreaking to watch, but she wanted to create awareness ❤😢.
This woman, Respect 🫡
When is her next concert
I saw the documentary a few days ago and it was a tough watch. I wouldn’t wish that illness on my worst enemy. I feel bad because I think she may have felt the pressure to show it to appease her fans who, even though knowing she’s not well, may still not understand why she just can’t perform.
