Amy Winehouse's long suffering father Mitch has revealed that the singer has contracted emphysema and could be confined to a wheelchair within a month if she doesn't quit drugs.
In an emotional interview the cab driver told how doctors have warned his daughter - who was rushed to hospital last week - that she may be forced to wear a permanent oxygen mask to survive if she doesn't follow medical advice.
"To think this could be my beautiful 24-year-old daughter's life is preposterous. But if drugs mean more to her than breathing properly, then so be it".
"But the doctors have told her if she goes back to smoking drugs it won't just ruin her voice, it will kill her." He said.
He also urged Winehouse's drug dealers and addict friends such as rocker Pete Doherty - who has been spending time with the 24-year-old since his release from prison last month - to stay away from her.
"I'm saying to those drug dealers, and they know who they are, if they are supplying crack to Amy, then they've got to take responsibility. I don't want her hanging out with her mates like Pete Doherty either." He said.
