Dolly Parton To Address Health Concerns

Dolly Parton’s Health Concerns Addressed on Social Media

Dolly Parton’s publicist informed JS that the country legend would be addressing concerns about her health on social media on Wednesday. This announcement came after Dolly’s sister, Freida Parton, asked for prayers from the public in a social media post.

Freida Parton shared, “Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly. Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been led to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me. She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly. We all love you!”

Following Freida’s post, social media users expressed their prayers and concerns for the 10-time Grammy-winning artist. It is unclear what specific health issue Dolly Parton is currently facing, but Freida’s post coincided with Dolly’s recent decision to postpone her upcoming Las Vegas residency, “Dolly: Live in Las Vegas.”

Dolly announced on September 28th, “As many of you know, I have been dealing with some health challenges, and my doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures. In all seriousness, given this, I am not going to be able to rehearse and put together the show that I want you to see, and the show that you deserve to see. You pay good money to see me perform, and I want to be at my best for you.”

Despite these health challenges, the 79-year-old star reassured fans that she has no plans to retire anytime soon.
