Ernest, the son of Loretta Lynn, recently underwent a surgery to treat his kidney failure. Initially, there were concerns about the success of the procedure. However, there is now some positive news about his recovery. Ernest's wife, Crystal, shared an update on Monday (Jan. 29), stating that he has started experiencing significant improvements in his health.

Similarly, one day they were confronted with more severe circumstances, but the next day those circumstances seemed to lessen.
