Country singer Loretta Lynn has been hospitalized after suffering a stroke at her home in Tennessee.

The 85-year-old is "currently under medical care and is responsive and expected to make a full recovery," according to a message posted Friday to Lynn's Facebook page and website.

Her doctor has advised her to stay off the road, the message said. As a result, some of her upcoming shows have been postponed.

She has no upcoming shows in Arizona, according to her online schedule.
