International country superstar Dolly Parton continues her Media Blitz to promote her first children's album, I Believe In You, as she open up on a special appearance on Dr. Oz this Thursday. Click HERE for local listings.

Parton will cover a variety of topics with Oz, including segments about Mountain Medicine and her personal struggle with kidney stones. In addition, the episode will cover the special visit Parton and Dr. Oz recently made to the Vanderbilt Children's hospital.

The visit was a personal one for Parton, who recently donated 1 million dollars to the hospital, because her niece Hannah underwent successful chemo there. The struggles her niece faced inspired multiple songs on her new children's album I Believe In You, including "Chemo Hero" and "Brave Little Soldier." You can order the album, HERE.
