Loretta Lynn's family recently shared an update on the condition of her son, Ernest Ray Lynn, who underwent surgery due to kidney failure. However, the initial outcomes of the procedure suggest that it did not yield the desired results as anticipated by the doctors.
Crystal, the wife of Ernest, shared an update with fans on Thursday (January 25th) regarding his recent surgery. She had initially shared details on Facebook and mentioned that this was the day when doctors would provide more information about the success of the operation.
In her update, she expressed that the day did not go as expected, but they are not losing hope. They have strong faith and confidently believe that the operation will be successful, and they trust that the Lord will provide for their needs. They are requesting prayers for the new device to start functioning properly tomorrow morning. They have firm belief in God and the effectiveness of prayer, and they are grateful for the ongoing support, prayers, concern, and friendship.
As of Sunday, Crystal has not provided any recent official updates about Ernest. However, she has used social media to inform fans that they are still praying for her husband. Additionally, Crystal has shared a collection of photos featuring Ernest, some of which seem to have been taken while he was in the hospital.
Loretta Lynn survived the passing of two of her children, who she had with her late husband, Oliver "Doolittle" Lynn. The first was their oldest daughter Betty Sue, who passed away in 2013 due to complications from emphysema. The second was their oldest son Jack Benny, who tragically drowned in 1984 while trying to cross a river on the Lynn family's property in Hurricane Mills, Tennessee.
Lynn passed away on October 4, 2022, at her residence in Hurricane Mills. At the age of 90, she had established herself as one of the most influential figures in country music and held the record for being the female country artist with the most awards.
