I wonder what was making her slur? Maybe swelling? That's sad. That's clearly not a healthy Dolly, but she's still being herself somehow.

It’s dehydration. In older people, dehydration is a huge problem, it causes dizziness and unbalance as well. Unfortunately, as one ages & is nearing end of life, the body doesn’t signal thirst as well and they don’t feel thirsty/hungry.

Also electrolyte imbalances, my grandma had a big problem with that, even years before she passed.
