SHE HAD A STROKE AT 85. TWO YEARS LATER, SHE RELEASED AN ALBUM CALLED “STILL WOMAN ENOUGH.” May 2017. Loretta Lynn collapses at her ranch in Hurricane Mills. A stroke ends 57 years of touring overnight. Eight months later, she falls again. Broken hip. Doctors tell her she’s done. She isn’t done. In March 2021, at 88 years old, Loretta releases her 50th studio album. She calls it Still Woman Enough — pulled from the title of a song she wrote five decades earlier, when she was the first woman bold enough to say it out loud in country music. She brought Reba, Carrie Underwood, and Tanya Tucker on the title track. Three generations of women, singing back the line she gave them. She died 19 months later. The album was the last word. A coal miner’s daughter who refused to let a stroke write her ending — was that stubbornness, or was it the only way she knew how to be?
