Ernest Ray Lynn, age 69, had another kidney surgery. The surgery was to implant a device to help the “Coal Miner’s Daughter” singer’s son with the kidney failure he has been struggling with for years. Sadly, it appears the medical device is not working as it was expected to work.

The Social Media Announcement

Crystal Lynn, Ernest Ray’s wife, did not go into any details about the medical device her husband received. Normally quite private about his health issues, felt the need to share the news of the “Fist City” singer’s son. Ernest Ray approved of her making the announcement about his continued health struggles. Other than to say it was to help with his kidney failure and continued dialysis, no other details were explained about the operation.

Based on that information, Ernest Ray Lynn will probably have to continue with his dialysis treatments. Seeing the surgery was not successful, his team of doctors will have to take more drastic measures in order to improve his life. She asked the fans of Loretta Lynn for prayers for her husband and his continued kidney issues.
