Twain also noticed a change in her voice, saying in the documentary that she had lost control. "My voice has never been the same again. I thought I had lost my voice forever. I thought that was everything, [and] I would never sing," she explains.

Above the same time, Twain and Lange went through their divorce.

"In this research to determine what caused this lack of control with my voice and this change in my voice, I face a divorce," she said. "My husband leaves me for another woman. Now I am at a completely different low. And I do not see in progress with a musical career."

Lange left Twain to be with her friend,Marie-Anne Thiébaud. Twain later married Marie-Anne's ex-husbandFrédéric Thiébaud in 2011.

It took a long time before Twain understood that Lyme disease waslinked to his vocal problems.

"I was on a long sabbatical leave, and my son is aging," said TwainPeople in 2020. Twain and Lange have a son,Eja, who is now 20 years old. "I love being a full-time mom, but I started to think:" What am I going to do when I have an empty nest? "I had a problem with my voice; I avoid doing something about it. As my son got more independence, I had more time to start focusing on my voice and I I put all my energy in it. "

She continued: "I thought it was just fatigue or professional exhaustion. But no, Lyme disease generally affects nerves. When I discovered an overview of hope, I ran with that." Twain then sufferedTwo open area surgeries, which allowed him to sing again, but his voice will never be exactly the same as before his diagnosis.

"It would have killed me to never sing," she said. "I was not going to let my life finish if I was not going to be able to sing again, but I would have been very sad and I would have cried that forever. But it is a great love to me and a passion - This is what made me come back to the stage, because I could. Now, I have more appreciation than ever. "
