Celine Dion did yesterday morning one of her rare public appearances since the end of her tour. Along with her mother, brothers and sisters, she attended the lifting of the first shovelful of earth that will be at the end of 2010, the House of palliative care Adhémar-Dion, in Terrebonne.
Wearing a white robe and a blue jacket, Celine Dion arrived at the site of St. Charles Road, on Highway 40, the arm of her husband, René Angélil, and their young son, René Charles.
Own clan reunion Dion, laughter, songs and warm hugs are multiplied before the ceremony begins.
Funded to the tune of three million by the Foundation Center's health and social services in southern Lanaudière, Maison-Adhémar Dion (whose total investment approaching $ 4 million) will be a palliative care home which has 12 rooms private and that every year some 200 people in the end.
Last fall, the project sponsors have agreed with Dion for the family that the house bears the name of the deceased patriarch
"I am proud and I hope he hear me," says Thérèse Tanguay-Dion lifting her eyes to heaven. Before accepting, it has been several meetings with children, admetelle, and they all said they would be proud too.”
Adhemar Dion, he died in the comfort of his home, surrounded by his family, at the end of November 2003.
"I was told he had for eight months and has been for a year. He went three days in hospital and returned to the house where I nursed him." I was told he had for eight months and has been for a year. He went three days in hospital and returned to the house where I nursed him.
"I hope people who come here are entitled to care as those I gave to my husband at home. In hospitals, they have more staff to do that," says the lady of 82 years
Thérèse Tanguay-Dion is especially proud that the house is located in the Lanaudière. "My children were raised here and they always come back," she says. "My children were raised here and they always come back," she says.
A Question of Values A question of values
Affected by the words of her mother, Celine Dion wished with all her heart that the staff of the house happens to offer "something that goes beyond medicine."
"It's beyond care, equipment or medicines To be honest, when this project was presented to us, our first concern was to ask if they come to treat people at the height of the love we had for our father, "she confides
Referring then the whirlwind of life, Celine Dion took the opportunity yesterday to lament the fact that some elderly and sick are still left to themselves
"Life pushes us to move quickly, but this is often not about money or space , sometimes it is one of values, which have changed over time. The people of today's generation do not know where bring their parents, and I find it sad, "she confides
Minor complications Minor complications
Celine Dion, you know, attaches great importance to family values, who wants to expand her small family.
Hormone treatment to enable her to give birth a second time had to be postponed a few weeks.
"There are some small complications. It was to begin in March, at the end of the tour, but rather it will take place at the end of July," says René Angélil. It should begin in March at the end of the tour, but rather it will take place at the end of July, "says René Angélil.
"In fact, I caught a virus on holiday in India Wednesday, and we must settle this little intestinal problem before going further. It is nothing serious. "It will just take a little longer, but we must not rush things."
Céline Dion, René Angélil and Rene-Charles spent the summer in Quebec, at least until mid-August.
"I am listening to my emotions, my husband and my son. I am privileged to be there. I am privileged to be there. As an artist, sometimes I miss a lot. Here, have fun, eat an ice cream, knock golf balls. I'm available, and not have schedules or agendas is very big for me, "says the singer.
