Remembering Dolly Parton 1946-2026
Dolly Parton has died at the age of 80. She had been battling illness for the past several months. 2026 was a milestone year for Dolly, marking her 80th birthday, the 60th anniversary of her marriage to the late Carl Dean, the 40th anniversary of Dollywood, and the 30th anniversary of her Imagination Library. Born January 19, 1946, in Sevierville, Tennessee, Dolly Rebecca Parton rose from humble beginnings in the Great Smoky Mountains to become one of the most successful people in the entertainment world. Over a career spanning more than six decades, she has written such classics as “Jolene,” “Love is Like a Butterfly,” and “I Will Always Love You,” the latter becoming a worldwide hit when recorded by Whitney Houston.
What is a urogynecologist and signs you should see one
Many women are familiar with visiting a gynecologist for routine reproductive care or a urologist for bladder issues. However, there is a specialized field of medicine that combines both, called urogynecology. An urogynecologist focuses specifically on diagnosing, managing and treating pelvic floor disorders. The pelvic floor is a supportive network of muscles, ligaments and connective tissue that holds a woman’s pelvic organs in place. When these muscles weaken or suffer damage from childbirth, aging, heavy lifting, genetics or chronic coughing, uncomfortable symptoms can develop that may even become distressing at times.

Nashville’s WSMTV (now WSMV-TV) carried “The Porter Wagoner Show” (on which Dolly performed from 1967-1974) as part of its Saturday afternoon lineup of syndicated country music shows.
