00:00Hey Natalie, bring your camera over here. I want to say something. Well today's October the 8th and
00:07obviously I'm here doing some commercials for the Grand Ole Opry, which is why I'm dressed
00:13kind of like a country western girl. But before I got started, I wanted to say I know lately
00:21everybody thinks that I am sicker than I am. Do I look sick to you? I'm working hard here.
00:26Anyway, I wanted to put everybody's mind at ease, those of you that seem to be real concerned,
00:33which I appreciate. And I appreciate your prayers because I'm a person of faith. I can always use
00:39the prayers for anything and everything. But I want you to know that I'm okay. I've got some
00:45problems, as I mentioned. Back when my husband Carl was very sick, that was for a long time. And then
00:52when he passed, I didn't take care of myself. So I let a lot of things go that I should
00:57have been
00:57taken care of. So anyway, when I got around to it, the doctor said, we need to take care of
01:03this. We
01:03need to take care of that. Nothing major, but I did have to cancel some things so I could be
01:10closer to
01:10home, closer to Vanderbilt, you know, where I'm kind of having a few treatments here and there.
01:15But I wanted you to know that I'm not dying. Did you see that AI picture of Reba and me?
01:23Oh,
01:24Lordy. I mean, they had Reba at my deathbed. And we both looked like we need to be buried.
01:32But I thought, oh, my Lord. But if I was really dying, I don't think Reba would be the one
01:40at my
01:40deathbed. She would not come visit me earlier. But anyway, there's just a lot of rumors flying
01:47around. But I figured if you heard it from me, you'd know that I was okay. So anyhow, that's what
01:55I wanted to say. And I'm not ready to die yet. I don't think God is through with me and
02:00I ain't
02:01done working. So I love you for caring and keep praying for me.
