Health concerns grows for Dolly Parton as sister requests prayers

Few artists have left a mark on music quite like Dolly Parton. With her dazzling charm, signature voice, and heart of gold, she became far more than just a country singer but a symbol of talent, wit, and resilience.

Beneath the glittering image of the blond bombshell lies a woman whose honesty, humor, and generosity have inspired millions for decades. From humble beginnings in rural Tennessee, Dolly’s journey to stardom began early. She was already performing by age 10, and by 13 she had made her debut at the Grand Ole Opry, earning just $20 a week but capturing hearts instantly.

Dolly was raised in a family where music flowed through generations and was deeply influenced by her mother’s musical relatives, and her passion only grew stronger when her uncle Lewis gifted her his beloved Martin guitar.

After finishing high school, Dolly set out for Nashville with big dreams and unstoppable determination. The rest is history — a career spanning more than half a century, over 3,000 songs written, more than 100 million albums sold, 25 number-one hits, and eight Grammy Awards.

The 79-year-old singer who lost her husband, Carl Dean, earlier this year is experiencing health issues.

Freida Parton, Dolly’s sister, took to Facebook on Tuesday with a heartfelt message that revealed just how worried she’s been.

“Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly,” Freida wrote. “Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately.”

Her post continued, “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!”

The message came a week after Dolly postponed her highly anticipated Las Vegas residency due to medical issues.

“I want the fans and public to hear directly from me that, unfortunately, I will need to postpone my upcoming Las Vegas concerts,” Dolly explained in an Instagram post. “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.”

Following the health scare, which she didn’t go into details about, Dolly posted another message comforting her fans. “Don’t worry about me quittin’ the business because God hasn’t said anything about stopping yet.” Many agree these words perfectly sum up her brave and full of fate spirit.

Just last month, Dolly revealed she’d suffered a kidney stone and infection that forced her to miss a Dollywood event.

“Turned out, it’d given me an infection, and the doctor said, ‘You don’t need to be traveling right this minute, so you need a few days to get better,’” she said, according to People magazine. “So, he suggested I not go to Dollywood today, but I’m there with you in spirit.”

Despite health struggles and the heartbreaking loss of her husband, the country legend remains strong in faith, hope, and love.
