Celine Dion is giving fans an honest look at her life with stiff person syndrome.
In a new documentary, the famous singer experiences a scary medical crisis during a physical therapy session, and it’s all caught on camera.
In 2022, Dion revealed she had been diagnosed with stiff person syndrome. In the documentary, “I Am: Celine Dion,” she shares that she had been dealing with symptoms of this rare, progressive neurological disorder for 17 years.
“I need my instrument. And my instrument was not working. So we started to elevate the medicine,” Dion, 56, said after struggling to hit certain notes during her 2018 and 2019 tours.
Though she completed her 2018 tour, Dion had to postpone several dates from her 2019 tour due to the “common cold” before the pandemic shut it down.
Her tour resumed in 2022, but she had to keep canceling and rescheduling shows. It wasn’t until she announced her diagnosis that she officially canceled the rest of her appearances.
“I can’t lie anymore,” Dion says in the documentary. “From a sinus infection to an ear infection to whatever. Sometimes I would point my microphone toward the audience, and I would make them sing it. There are moments where I cheated and I tapped on the microphone like it was the microphone’s fault.”

In the documentary, there’s a part where Dion shows a very personal moment. She’s lying on a massage table doing exercises for her physical therapy when her foot suddenly starts to cramp. Soon after, her whole body tightens up and she can’t move or talk to the people around her.
The camera keeps recording as another person from her medical team rushes in with a nasal spray called benzodiazepine. They give it to Dion, who’s in so much pain that she’s crying, even though she can’t move. It’s really hard to watch this part of the video.

Once the spasms have subsided – they typically last anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour – Dion is able to sit up and speak.
“Every time something like this happens, it makes me feel so embarrassed,” she says. “I don’t know how to express it, you know, to not have control over yourself.”
Her physical therapist speculates the attack was brought on by being “overstimulated” from an earlier singing session.
“If I can’t get stimulated by what I love, then I’m going to go on stage, and you’re going to put the pulse oximeter on me and turn me on my back?” she wonders.
Dion hopes that one day soon she’ll be able to return to the stage.
Mom And Dad Going Viral After Birth Of Black Baby Because Both Are White

A baby’s birth is always cause for celebration, particularly when, after months of waiting, it’s time to finally see them in person. Nothing compares to touching our babies for the first time, even though ultrasounds allow us to glimpse them in the womb.
Babies frequently astonish us with their special qualities, such as adorable dimples or a hairy head. The most unexpected development, though, is when the child no longer resembles either of its parents.
This is what occurred to a family whose tale gained widespread attention and sparked internet rumors and speculation. Continue reading to learn what transpired.
At the Tennessee Celina 52 Truck Stop, Rachel works as a cashier. She gave birth to her son Cash Jamal Buckman on February 17. However, what caught people’s attention was that, although Cash appeared to be black, Rachel and her fiancé, Paul Buckman, are both white.

The truck stop wished Rachel luck with her new baby and shared a photo of the content family on Facebook.
The tweet said, “We are happy for our cashier Rachel and her fiancé Paul Buckman on the birth of their baby, Cash Jamal Buckman, on Saturday at 6:18 p.m.”
Nevertheless, the message drew criticism rather than support, with some speculating that Paul might not be Cash’s biological father.
Celina 52 Truck Stop updated their article to confirm that Paul is the father in response to the rumors. Due to her African American ancestry, Rachel may jump generations and give birth to a child who has darker complexion.
They concluded the post with the words “Please be kind,” and mentioned that Cash might have jaundice, which is common in newborns.
Internet jokes and queries persisted even after the truck stop responded.
Someone posted: “Happy birthday! He certainly looks like his father. What is his location?
Another person wrote, “Definitely needs a DNA test; what if they accidentally mixed up the kiddos in the nursery?”
Meanwhile, there were many who sympathized with Paul. “I feel bad for Paul, being duped like this is a whole new level of creep,” someone commented. Maybe he’ll come to his senses.
At that point, Rachel made the decision to take action on her own. She shared what she believed to be her DNA results on Facebook to demonstrate her ancestry.
Perhaps the results of my heritage DNA would dispel the naysayers’ claims that I [don’t] have black DNA. NOW QUIT discrediting my reputation and the name of my fiancé, Paul Buckman. “He truly is Lil Cash’s father,” she added.

However, the jokes persisted, and a good number of them ridiculed the circumstance and questioned the accuracy of the test findings.
It’s the strongest one percent I’ve ever seen. Someone said, “Looks like Maury has a job here.”
With comparable DNA, a second member commented, saying, “I have that too… and both my babies still look Irish as a boiled potato.”
The story swiftly gained popularity on social media, inspiring hundreds of individuals to share their feelings and opinions. Users from TikTok also jumped into the chat, contributing their own humorous perspectives on the situation.
Celina 52 Truck Stop announced that they would be administering polygraph and DNA testing to their employees in response to persistent rumors. The announcement incited even greater outrage, and many are now impatiently awaiting the conclusion of the probe.
This unexpected change of events has garnered a lot of attention, turning a routine birth announcement into a global sensation—even if nobody knows the whole truth.
