The insider went on to say that the "Because You Loved Me" singer is "keeping her condition private at the moment, but her life has changed drastically," adding that she is fighting hard to improve her health. "She sees specialists like a neurologist, a holistic practitioner, and occupational and physical therapists," the source revealed. And she is still remaining positive, according to the source, and "holding out hope that she can beat the odds." The source added: "She's refusing to accept defeat. She needs to accept the treatment. And lots of R&R."
