Country Music Star Holly Dunn Relies On Faith in Fighting Cancer

Holly Dunn, a country music veteran and star, says her Christian faith is helping her battle an aggressive form of ovarian cancer.

Dunn became famous in the 1980's through hit songs like "Daddy's Hands," "Love Someone Like Me," and "Strangers Again."

In 2003 she made the transition to a career as an artist. 

In a recent interview the 59-year-old revealed her fight against cancer and how she is facing her struggle head-on. 

"Back in March of this year, I was diagnosed with a rare, very aggressive form of ovarian cancer," Dunn said. "If you read the statistics, it is very bleak. Good thing I don't believe in statistics!"

"I had surgery and now I am having chemo treatments. I have since grown more tumors and it is going to be more of a battle than I anticipated, but I have a huge faith in the healing power of God and the healing power within me that originates from my God. I look towards a future when I am completely healed and cancer free. I ask for prayers of strength and courage as this journey continues," she elaborated.

"Being a Christian, I know that no matter how this chapter ends, I will be OK," she said. 

Dunn is currently undergoing treatments in New Mexico. Fans are able to send well wishes at the following address: Holly Dunn, PO Box 70, Placitas, NM 87043.
