Miley Cyrus & Dolly Parton singing I Will Always Love You x Wrecking Ball. Their last performance together and one of the greatest performances ever.
It was revealed that Dolly Parton was secretly battling cancer but she didn't say anything and instead released this song as one of her last to raise funds for children with cancer. Even while she was sick she was still thinking about others. I’m absolutely devastated.
In 1988 Dolly Parton pulled every 7th and 8th grader in Sevier County into a room and told them to pick a buddy.
She made them sign a contract.. if BOTH graduate, she hands you both $500. One fails, nobody gets paid.
The county dropout rate went from 35% to 6%.
She handed out the checks herself.
In 1989 she offered $500 to every kid in the county who wanted to go to the local college.
When Gatlinburg burned in 2016, she sent 900 families $1,000 a month for six months.
You've probably heard that part.
Here's the part you haven't:
The fund raised more than expected, so she showed up in May and handed every one of those families another $5,000 on top.
Then she quietly put $3 million into the recovery group that handles the years after the news trucks leave.
She built her county an entire hospital.
She played a benefit concert in 2007, Dollywood and the Stampede matched it, and LeConte Medical Center opened in 2010 with a birthing unit and a women's center in it.
In 2022 she started covering 100% of tuition, books, and fees for Dollywood employees.
Full-time, part-time, AND seasonal.
In 1991 she paid for a bald eagle sanctuary because the birds couldn't be released back into the wild, no press release.
And when Hurricane Helene came through here in Western North Carolina, she wrote a personal check for $1 million and her companies matched it.
She didn't owe North Carolina anything, but she helped us anyway.
She started the Imagination Library because her daddy couldn't read or write. Before he passed, he told her it was the most important thing she ever did.
Rest in Peace, Dolly 🇺🇸
@ShawnRyanShow Radiation is a known carcinogen. This was learned shortly after x-rays were discovered. When a doctor orders a CAT scan for his patient, he is supposed to weigh the benefits versus the risks. They should not be ordered willy-nilly.
Stroke Warning Signs: Something I Learned the Hard Way
I was in a hospital bed being treated for my own stroke when my mother had one, and I didn't recognize the signs. Not because I didn't know them. Because knowing and seeing are two different things when it's someone you love.
F.A.S.T.
The signs that matter:
•Face drooping on one side
•Arm weakness, one side drifting down
•Speech slurred or strange
•Time to call emergency services immediately, don't wait
Other signs people miss: sudden confusion, sudden vision trouble, sudden severe headache with no cause, sudden loss of balance.
Every minute matters. Brain cells die by the millions for every minute a stroke goes untreated.
Don't wait to see if it passes. It's not going to pass on its own.
@CaryKelly11 Looks great. I'll try it. I know you have been experimenting with homemade sour cream, if you need store-bought, have you tried Fage brand? It is excellent.
