Amy Winehouse has emphysema



LONDON -- Amy Winehouse has early stage emphysema and her lungs have been damaged by smoking crack cocaine and cigarettes, her father said in an interview published Sunday.
The Sunday Mirror quoted Mitch Winehouse as saying that Amy has an irregular heartbeat, and has been warned that she will have to wear an oxygen mask unless she stops smoking drugs.
"The doctors have told her if she goes back to smoking drugs, it won't just ruin her voice, it will kill her," Mitch Winehouse was quoted as saying. "There are nodules around the chest and dark marks. She has 70 percent lung capacity." at http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn...062300669.html .

Very sad. I really like her song Rehab but it is eerily prescient.

She'll die. Overdose. It's an inevitability, like the tide.

I love her two records. They are amazing. Such a sad tale of self-destruction she is. She's young, she can bounce back.......if she stops now.

She has such an amazing voice - I loved Rehab and You know I'm no good -

Too bad she is so sick so young from her choices.

I don't like her voice . . . and I'm sorry she is doing this to herself.

What a waste of a human life.
