Singer Celine Dion is going through a very difficult moment right now. The artist's husband, producer René Angélil, died on Thursday. The star's family is preparing for the funeral, but as it became known, Rene's death is not the only serious test for Celine and her loved ones. The older brother of the star Daniel is fighting cancer.

According to press reports, the 59-year-old man was diagnosed with cancer of the larynx and tongue. He is now in a hospital in Montreal, Canada. Relatives fear that the days of Daniel's life are numbered.

Meanwhile, Dion herself is preparing to say goodbye to her husband. It is known that the farewell ceremony will be held at Notre Dame Cathedral, Montreal. More than twenty years ago, the wedding of the singer and the producer took place here.

Recall that Angelil was diagnosed with oncology in 1999. The doctors managed to suppress the disease, and after a few years the disease receded. In 2013, there was a relapse, in August 2014, Dion canceled a tour of Asia and announced that she would stop any activity in the field of show business in order to take care of her spouse.

At the end of last year, the serious condition of the man was reported.

“We've talked a lot with him over the past months. Once I asked him: "Are you afraid? I understand everything. You can tell me everything that you feel." And Rene replied: "I want to die in your arms." I agreed and promised that I would be there and that his desire would come true. When you see someone desperately fighting a disease, it leaves a very strong mark on you and your life,”the artist said in an interview.
