- Country music icon Dolly Parton, 80, provided a health update to fans, stating she is responding well to medications and treatments after canceling concerts last year due to medical issues.
- Parton revealed she is improving daily but is not yet ready for stage performances, as some treatments cause her to feel "swimmy-headed," making it challenging to perform in her signature high heels and elaborate outfits.
- “The good news is that I’m responding really well to meds and treatments, and I’m improving every day,” Parton revealed. “Now, the bad news is, it’s gonna take me a little while before I’m up to stage-performance level, because some of the meds and treatments make me a little bit swimmy-headed.”
- She further explained her ongoing struggles with chronic kidney stones and issues with her immune and digestive systems, which medical professionals are actively working to rebuild and strengthen.
- Parton thanked her fans for their unwavering support over the past year, assuring them she is on the path to recovery and anticipates returning to the stage soon, following her previous public appearance cancellations and a postponed Las Vegas residency.
