Country music legend Alan Jackson, 62,

has revealed his diagnosis of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT),

a genetic nerve disorder that affects balance and muscle strength.

Despite the challenges, Jackson remains positive,

calling it “a blessing” to openly share his struggle.

Inherited from his family,

CMT isn’t life-threatening but can cause other health complications.

Jackson plans to continue his music career, acknowledging the obstacles ahead.

With over 43.5 million albums sold in the U.S.,

Jackson’s impact on country music is immense.

He was recently inducted into the Country Music

Hall of Fame, where Loretta Lynn praised him, saying,

“You’re going to be one of the greatest singers in country music.”

Though the diagnosis is a setback,

Jackson’s determination and the support from fans and fellow artists highlight his resilience.

He continues to inspire many as he faces this challenge with strength and hope.
