Dolly Parton Dies At 80:The Health Struggles Behind The Smile That Lit Up Country Music For Decades

Y’all know I love me some Dolly Parton, and the world just lost one of its greatest givers. Dolly Parton passed away at 80, and as celebrity health news goes, this one hits different. While we’re still waiting on her official cause of death, Dolly was actually quite open about her health journeys over the years, and I want to honor her by sharing what she chose to share. She had endometriosis so severe it led to a hysterectomy at just 36. She talked openly about severe depression, including a time when she had a plan to unalive herself, and she credited her dog with saving her. She dealt with kidney stones and kidney infections, and as a board-certified kidney doctor, I know exactly how serious that can get. She had back pain. She recently canceled appearances due to illness. She donated over 300 million books worldwide and built a children’s hospital. Rest in peace, Dolly Parton.
