Country music legend Dolly Parton has recently faced some health setbacks that have affected her scheduled appearances. The 79-year-old star missed the launch of a new Dollywood attraction due to kidney stones. In addition, she made the difficult decision to postpone her upcoming Las Vegas residency, which was highly anticipated by fans.
In an Instagram post addressing her followers, Dolly explained, “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.” This statement emphasized her commitment to giving her audience the highest quality performance.
Amid concerns over Dolly’s health, her sister Freida Parton made a public plea for prayers. Sharing on Facebook, Freida said, “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.” Freida’s message reflected her deep faith and hope for Dolly’s recovery.
Fans responded swiftly and passionately, flooding social media with prayers and kind words. One fan commented, “Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus, I pray, sending many prayers to all y’all.” Another wrote, “Praying for complete healing for Dolly! We serve an awesome God.” Several others encouraged Dolly to stay strong and reminded her she was not alone.
Support extended beyond Dolly herself, as fans also sent love and prayers to her family, acknowledging the emotional toll health issues can take on loved ones. Comments like, “Love you Dolly and will be in my prayers,” and “Love you too, Freida, will also have you in my prayers,” showed the solidarity felt among the community.
With so many people keeping Dolly in their thoughts and prayers, fans hope for her quick recovery and return to the stage.
