Frieda Parton appealed to fans everywhere to pray for Dolly, adding that she had been up all night on her knees. Internet chaos: activated. It didn’t take long for Dolly to hear about the ruckus, and even less time for her to address it. In an Instagram post yesterday, the legend got right to the point.
“Well, today’s October 8th, and obviously I’m here doing some commercials for the Grand Ole Opry, which is why I’m dressed kind of like a country western girl,” she began the clip. “Do I look sick to you? I’m working hard here.” She went on to explain in detail what was going on with her, healthwise.
“Those of you that seem to be real concerned, which I appreciate, and I appreciate your prayers, because I’m a person of faith. I can always use the prayers for anything and everything, but I want you to know that I’m okay,” she said. “I’ve got some problems, as I mentioned back when my husband, Carl, was very sick. That was for a long time, and then when he passed, I didn’t take care of myself, so I let a lot of things go that I should have been taking care of.” She went on to explain that when she did finally look into her health, there were some things that needed to be addressed, but it was “nothing major.” “I’m kind of having a few treatments here and there, but I wanted you to know that I’m not dying.”
