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, on Monday (Jan. 29), Ernest's wife Crystal shared an update stating that he has started to experience some significant improvements in his health.
Crystal expressed on Facebook that she is unable to provide any logical justification for the situation she is experiencing, except for the intervention of a higher power, which she refers to as God. She mentions how one day they were unable to undergo a successful dialysis procedure for a period of three weeks, but suddenly the following day they were able to. She also highlights the contrast in their circumstances, where one day they were facing more severe challenges, but the next day those circumstances seemed to have improved. Crystal further emphasizes the uncertainty they felt about the future on one day, but then suddenly gained confidence that the future holds promising outcomes.
She continues to express that GOD is capable of achieving things that we are unable to accomplish, and indeed, HE has done it! Crystal additionally posted a picture of Ernest recovering in what seems to be a chair at a healthcare facility, connected to various machines but otherwise resting comfortably.
During Ernest's medical journey, Crystal has asked for the help and prayers of fans who are worried about her husband's recovery. In her most recent update, she emphasizes the significant impact that prayer had on Ernest's progress in terms of his health.

The writer concludes by expressing eternal gratitude for all those who have been part of God's army.
The author mentions that Ernest is able to return home for his recovery after being discharged from the hospital.
