'My beautiful Amy Winehouse has emphysema,' says her dad

Amy Winehouse's father Mitch delivered the sad news yesterday that his daughter has been diagnosed with emphysema - and that if she goes back to smoking drugs, doctors say she will be "dead in three months".

"To think this could be my beautiful 24-year-old daughter's life is preposterous," Mitch told reporters. "With smoking the crack cocaine and the cigarettes her lungs are all gunked up. There are nodules around the chest and dark marks. She's got 70 per cent lung capacity."

Mitch also said that he didn't want Amy "hanging out with her mates like Pete Doherty" and that he hopes she has the resolve to turn her life around. "If she doesn't go back to drugs then she can lead this magnificent life," he says. "With her husband Blake too, if he gets clean as well. We are praying that that's what Amy really wants... We'll just have to see how great her resolution is."
