Amy Winehouse 'No Longer Uses Drugs', Mother Says

Amy Winehouse's mother, Janis, says she believes her daughter no longer uses drugs.

Speaking to the Mirror newspaper, Mrs Winehouse said her daughter's recent health problems, which include being diagnosed with traces of the lung disease emphysema, had given her “a bit of a wake-up call.”

"I really don't think she's using (drugs) now. Being diagnosed with the early stage of emphysema was a real jolt to her,” she said.

"She's got a constant P.A. (personal assistant) by her side, a minder - plus there's a security guard watching her. I think things are really beginning to take shape to the good."

As previously reported on Gigwise, Winehouse was rushed to hospital on Monday (July 28th) after falling ill at her home in London.

A spokesperson later said that she had suffered a reaction to medication.
