Singer Shania Twain

says her battle with

Lyme disease

has been "devastating". She says due to it, she is never going to have her old

voice

back but she is okay with that.

She got the tick-borne illness in 2003, and had to undergo open-throat surgery after her voice was damaged by the effects of

dysphonia

as a result of the disease. Now, Shania has said she "mourned" the loss of her voice, according to the reports.

"It was devastating. I felt I had no other choice but to just accept it in that I would never sing again. I was mourning the expression of my voice," said the 'From this moment on' hit maker.

After taking some time away from the spotlight to recover, Shania made her music comeback in 2017, with a new gravelly tone to her voice.

Speaking in a preview clip for an upcoming interview, she said: "I'm never going to have my old voice again. I'm okay with that. I've found a new voice and I like it."

Meanwhile, the 54-year-old recently spoke about needing to "rediscover" her voice following her series of surgeries.
