Ernest, the son of Loretta Lynn, recently underwent surgery to treat his kidney failure. Initially, there were concerns about the success of the surgery. However, as of Monday (Jan. 29), Ernest's wife Crystal shared an update stating that he has started experiencing significant improvements in his health.
Crystal expresses on Facebook that she is unable to provide any logical explanation for the favorable turn of events, except for attributing it to God. She highlights how, in a span of three weeks, they were unable to achieve a successful dialysis session, but suddenly, the following day, they were able to. Similarly, they were facing severe circumstances at one point but the next day, those circumstances seemed less serious. Crystal emphasizes how uncertain they were about the future, but suddenly, they have gained confidence and believe that the future holds positivity and promise.
Crystal expresses her belief that GOD has the ability to accomplish things that we cannot, and she claims that HE has already done so. She also provides visual evidence by sharing a picture of Ernest recovering in a medical facility, sitting in a chair while connected to machines, indicating that he is at ease.
During Ernest's difficult time with his medical condition, Crystal has been reaching out to fans for their support and prayer for her husband's recovery. In her most recent update, she emphasizes the significant impact that prayer has had on Ernest's progress in terms of his health.
She expresses gratitude towards the individuals' faith, the all-powerful deity, and their prayers and assistance, acknowledging that none of their achievements would have been attainable without them. She extends her appreciation to everyone who has supported them, emphasizing their importance as a support network. Additionally, she thanks them for their care and dedication in taking the time to pray for them. Lastly, she acknowledges everyone's role as part of a divine army and expresses eternal gratitude for their contributions.
In addition, she mentions that Ernest is fortunate enough to be able to return home for the purpose of recovery following his time at the hospital
