The star said the thought of never being able to sing again was 'terrifying' and that she had to grieve that loss.
Shania Twain thought she would never sing again after Lyme disease damaged her vocal cords.The international country music star, 58, first contracted the disease in 2003 when she was bitten by a tick after going horseback riding, but doctors couldn't figure out what was making her sick and stopping her from singing.'Watch out for those ticks, they're everywhere now,' she said in an interview on the U.K's BBC.
I really thought 'that's it,' I'm never gonna be able to sing again.'The 'Still the One' singer spent the next 10 years feeling 'bummed out' as she struggled to get her voice back and described that time as 'grieving.''But I couldn't change it,' she added, and then turned to another one of her skills, which was songwriting.
