Hello everyone, im sorry it’s taken me so long to reach out to you. I miss you all so much and can’t wait to be on stage talking to you in person.
As you know I’ve always been an open book and I wasn’t ready to say anything before but im ready now.
I’ve been dealing with problems with my health for a long time and its been really difficult for me to face my challenges and to talk about everything that I’ve been going through.
Recently, I’ve been diagnosed with a very rare neurological disorder called the stiff person syndrome which affects 1 in a million people.
While we’re still learning about this rare condition, we now know this is what’s been causing all the spasms I’ve been having.
