Over the years she has come across as a sweet, lovely person. 9 to 5, good movie.

Dolly is a wonderful lady, incredibly kind and talented. She has been through a lot this year with the loss of her beloved husband and now these health issues she is having. I hope and pray she recovers well from the procedures she is having. I have tremendous respect and admiration for all the things she does to give back, like the millions of books she donates to children around the world with her Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, encouraging children to read from birth till they begin school because she knows how important this is.

I hope everything is okay with her. She's incredible.

I listen to her rock album quite a bit. As someone who grew up listening to hard rock, I love that she did that album with guys like Steven Tyler and Rob Halford. Her spin on those classic songs (and some cool originals) was fantastic.

She is an American treasure.

This sounds rather ominous.

Incredible..........voice. x

Not surprised. That is a tremendous amount of work. And I think that the death of her husband affected her as well.

I think he was her "rock".

‘I didn’t mean to scare anyone’: Dolly Parton’s sister says after asking for prayers

Dolly postponed her first Las Vegas residency in more than 30 years late last month, saying she was dealing with health challenges.

www.wsmv.com

“I didn’t mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious,” Freida said. “She’s been a little under the weather and I simply asked for prayers because I believe so strongly in the power of prayer. It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up. Your love truly makes a difference.”

In Freida’s originally posted the following:

“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 lead 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!

I hope she'll be ok. I don't listen to her music but she is an international treasure IMO.

Dolly Parton's sister reveals singer suffering with kidney stones

Parton, 79, sparked worldwide concern when she announced she was postponing six shows for her from her upcoming Dolly: Live in Las Vegas residency.

www.dailymail.co.uk

My big sister will share with her fans when she so chooses in the meantime don’t come at me with questions or insults.'

This comes after Parton's representatives confirmed that the singer was not seriously ill after her family asked fans to send love and prayers to the country musician.

Dolly's UK manager Olly Rowland has confirmed that Freida's post has blown Dolly's mysterious illness out of proportion.

He explained: 'It's just the kidney stones, and the procedure she needs to resolve those.

'It looks like her sister posted, and it got quite a bit blown out of proportion, weirdly.'

Freida has also shared an update on Facebook as she penned: 'I didn't mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious.

'She's been a little under the weather and I simply asked for prayers because I believe so strongly in the power of prayer.

'It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up. Your love truly makes a difference.'

I'd be very relieved and happy to know that it was only kidney stones.

Although I wouldn't wish kidney stones on anyone.

 

[Smelly Squirrel]

Bad enough she has kidney stones, but worse that she has to deal with such a trifling sister.

She has a sibling who loves and cares about her. Hardly trifling

 

[Smelly Squirrel]

Didn't say she doesn't care, it's that she has no sense.

Love her.

Imagine Dolly as your big sister (and I say that as the baby sister in the family)! I can imagine she told her little sis to straighten up and fly right.
