Dang!!  This was published just yesterday.... Dolly Parton is keeping fans updated on her health journey after missing a major Dollywood event.
Last week, the country icon skipped the grand opening of the NightFlight Expedition rollercoaster in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, choosing to stay back in Nashville and send a video message to the crowd instead. In the video, she told fans that her doctor grounded her for the week due to dizziness and dehydration.
It turns out those symptoms are a part of a bigger picture. In a recent interview with People, Parton admitted that taking care of her late husband, Carl Thomas Dean, meant putting her own health on hold.
"I am dealing with some health issues that I just didn't pay attention to when I was watching over Carl," she said.
Parton is quick to remind fans that she's faced medical hurdles before. She brought up a months-long health issue that she dealt with back in the early '80s, noting that the main difference today is just how fast rumors spread online.
"It's not like I haven't been through hard times with my health," she said. "But I think because we live in a 24/7 world with social media, everything gets magnified in ways it wasn't years ago. I used to joke that I was the Queen of the Tabloids, but now I guess I can say I'm the Queen of Social Media AI!"
She reassured everyone that she's pushing forward, adding, "Seriously, though, even though I'm still healin', I'm still workin'."

not all that surprising , she lost her husband last year and realized how much she hadn't kept up her own health while caring for him.
I had hear that on a country radio station a week or two ago.
I just heard a cover she did of Night Moves play this morning , she really took the song and made it hers changing up the lyrics to fit her.
It is a very common widow/widower issue , forgetting to take care of yourself while caring for a spouse or because of grief not taking good care of ones self.
it definitely has to be a conscious decision to do so.
many lose the will to live and a few months of that at 80 and it is irreversible health effects.
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.
