After undergoing a surgery to treat his kidney failure, Loretta Lynn's son Ernest received positive news regarding his recovery. Initially, there were doubts about the success of the surgery, but as of Monday (Jan. 29), Ernest's wife Crystal reported significant improvements in his health.
Crystal expressed on Facebook that she cannot find any logical reason for the sudden positive changes in their situation, except for the intervention of a higher power. She mentioned how one day they were unable to have a successful dialysis treatment for a total of three weeks, but the very next day they were able to. Similarly, they were facing more severe circumstances at one point, but the following day those circumstances seemed less dire. Crystal also highlighted how uncertain they were about what the future held, but suddenly they gained confidence and believed that the future would be promising.
In her statement, she mentions that GOD is capable of achieving things that we are unable to, and that GOD has already accomplished it. Crystal also posted a picture of Ernest recovering in a chair at a healthcare facility, connected to medical equipment but seemingly in a peaceful state.
During Ernest's health crisis, Crystal has reached out to fans and asked for their support and prayers for her husband's recovery. In her most recent update, she emphasizes the significant impact that prayer has had on Ernest's improving health.
