How Celine Dion's diagnosis changed understanding of living with stiff-person syndrome

stiff-person =僵硬之人

It's been more than three months since Canadian singer Celine Dion announced she was diagnosed with stiff-person syndrome (SPS).

Dion, 54, posted to Instagram at the time, saying she needed to cancel the rest of her world tour due to SPS, a rare neurological condition that has no cure.

condition 疾病

neurological= 神經的；神經系統的

In the emotional video, Dion explains how the muscle spasms from SPS impact "every aspect" of her life and hinder her ability to perform.

spasm=痙攣

hinder=阻礙

Since the announcement, Tara Zier, the founder of the Stiff Person Syndrome Research Foundation, said the public's understanding of the condition has increased, resulting in hope for people dealing with SPS that more research and funding will follow.
