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, as of Monday (Jan. 29), Ernest's wife Crystal has shared an update stating that he has started experiencing significant improvements in his health.
Crystal expresses on Facebook that she cannot provide any logical explanation for the positive changes in her situation, except to attribute them to a higher power, which she refers to as God. She mentions how one day they were unable to achieve successful dialysis for a period of three weeks, but the next day they were able to. Similarly, she highlights how they were facing more severe circumstances on one day, but the following day, those circumstances seemed to have improved. Crystal also states that while they were uncertain about what the future held on one day, the next day they were filled with optimism and confidence, believing that the future would be bright.
In her statement, she emphasizes that GOD is capable of achieving things that we humans cannot, and she expresses that GOD has indeed accomplished something remarkable. Crystal further adds that she has also shared a picture of Ernest, who is currently recovering in a medical facility. The image shows Ernest sitting on a chair and connected to various machines, but he seems to be resting comfortably.
During Ernest's challenging medical journey, Crystal has reached out to fans, seeking their support and prayers for her husband's recovery. In her recent update, she emphasizes the significant impact that prayer has had on Ernest's progress in terms of his health.
