It has been a rough year for \u201cDuck Dynasty\u201d fans as the Robertson family has been hit with its share of health issues and heartbreak.<\/p>\n

Phil Robertson\u2019s death earlier this year was the big blow, but his wife, Kay Robertson, has had some concerning health issues as well. But, in the family\u2019s recent \u201cUnashamed\u201d podcast, fans found out that she is now doing much better.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s doing amazing,\u201d Al Robertson said according to Taste of Country.<\/a> \u201cShe seems to have turned a corner and is doing really good.\u201d<\/p>\n

Al and Jase Robertson revealed that Kay Robertson was doing so well that she was able to attend Thanksgiving with the family.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe was excited, happy,\u201d Al said. <\/p>\n

Willie Robertson gave an update on Kay\u2019s health back in June that painted a much different picture.<\/p>\n

\u201cKay is not in the best of health,\u201d he told USA Today. \u201cWe\u2019re trying to help her out as much as we can.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of it is she is just depressed,\u201d he said. \u201cShe lost her partner of 60 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

But \u201cMiss Kay\u201d was also struggling with her health before Phil\u2019s death. Jase Robertson made the revelation on the \u201cUnashamed With the Robertson Family,\u201d podcast in April. <\/p>\n

He said she suffered a fall and then had an infection that they feared might be the end of her life. <\/p>\n

Aside from Kay\u2019s health struggles, Uncle Si Robertson, 77, was also hospitalized recently with a severe sinus infection. Thankfully, he was treated and released. <\/p>\n
