American treasure Dolly Parton has shared an update about her health amid ongoing speculation about how she’s actually doing. Parton’s husband, Carl Dean, passed away in March of this year, and there has been ongoing concern about Dolly’s wellbeing. Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, increased worries earlier this week with a fairly cryptic post asking for prayers for Dolly. (She’s since apologized.)
But Dolly herself posted a video to Instagram explaining there’s “no need for fans to worry.” She admits after her husband’s death, she wasn’t taking as good of care of her health as she should have been, and is going to have some non-major procedures done soon.
Here’s hoping for a full and speedy recovery, Dolly!

Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
