Amy Winehouse is in initial stages of deadly lung disease emphysema.
The Grammy Award singer has been diagnosed with traces of emphysema due to her excessive smoking and drug habits according to her dad, Mitch Winehouse.
Dad Winehouse said, “Amy really hasn’t got emphysema. There are traces of emphysema. Obviously, if she doesn’t quit smoking it’s gonna get worse as with everybody else.”
“She’s smothered in nicotine patches. She’s responding brilliantly to treatment. She’s actually flourishing.”
Dad Winehouse also confirmed Amy’s attendance at the Glastonbury Festival in England this weekend, “She really wants to do the gigs at the weekend, and with the doctors’ permission and they’ve given that permission she’s gonna perform.”
Meanwhile chairman of British Lung Foundation, Dr. Keith Prowse has confirmed that Winehouse is suffering from emphysema.
He said, “Emphysema is extremely common but it generally affects middle-aged and elderly people. Smoking is the commonest cause, and it’s basically destruction of the lungs so that oxygen cannot get into them.”
