Loretta Lynn has opened about her health troubles and recovery, nearly 1 1/2 years after suffering a stroke and breaking her hip back in January.
Speaking to People, Lynn said “I wasn’t goin’ to let it stop me. You just can’t sit down and say ‘Hey, take me.'”
She recently released her new LP Wouldn’t It Be Great, co-produced by John Carter Cash and Lynn’s daughter Patsy Lynn Russell.
Lynn was set to release the LP last summer, however, that plan was derailed on May 5, 2017 when she suddenly realized she couldn’t use her left hand or arm.
“It’s a very scary thing when you find out you’re havin’ a stroke,” Lynn says. Immediately, “I wondered if I could sing. Mommy said I was born singin’. That’s all I’ve ever done. I couldn’t believe that that could be taken away.”
Your mind tells you, ‘You can!’ but your body soon tells you, ‘No you can’t quite do this,'” she says. “Got to work at it.”
