Grand Ole Opry icon Little Jimmy Dickens was greeted over the Independence Day holiday weekend with a crate of cards and letters sent by friends and fans to wish him well as he undergoes three weeks of short-term radiation treatments for a pre-cancerous condition on his vocal chords.

“If those are bills, you can keep ‘em,” Dickens said. “If they’re royalty checks or cards from the best fans in the world, I couldn’t be more excited or appreciative.”

After recovering from a short-term illness, the Opry member is scheduled to begin his first week of treatment Wednesday, July 10, a week later than anticipated. Doctors expect him to make a full recovery.

Fans are invited to continue sending cards and letters wishing the country music legend well. Correspondence should be mailed to the address below:
