Amy Winehouse "Covered In Nicotine Patches And Eating Like A Horse" - Page 2
"Blake apologised to me for getting Amy into drugs and says he's going to try and put it right.
"Blake was clean when I saw him but he's told me he wants to go into rehab. We've organised it so that as soon as he's out, that happens.
"He wants to go from zero to hero. It's very hard for him being in prison, but at least he's been trying," he said.
From reading the article, it seems that Amy is still in the hospital, being observed by nurses 24 hours a day. That's great...quite frankly, that's what needed to happen to Amy months ago, perhaps even a year or more ago. For all this talk of her doing an outpatient program to try and kick her drug habit, I personally think that approach won't work...doing it that way puts her too much in the "real world" and around her druggie enabling friends.
Personally, I think she needs to go away...away to a drug and alcohol rehab center far from London and the temptations found there. She needs to get in an intensive treatment program and step out of the spotlight for a good, long while. Talking about concert dates and such should be completely stopped, because her career is second to getting her health back and the drug lifestyle gone. Once she gets totally clean and sober, then she can resume performing, but right now 100% of her attention needs to be on getting clean and getting well.
I have asthma and I know the difficulties any sort of breathing problem can cause in one's life.  I wish Amy all the best. But her family is going to have to step it up if they hope to save her.
