British singer Amy Winehouse’s agonizing life continues just
as agonizingly, as she was admitted to a London
clinic over the weekend after she suffered a reaction to medication.
Chris Goodman, a spokesperson for Amy Winehouse revealed the
singer entered the London Clinic on Sunday to receive treatment for a reaction
she had to medication. Goodman would not detail the meds troubling Winehouse. She
is being kept there for tests.
The 25-year-old singer has been hospitalized before for
similar problems. In July, she was at her home when she felt ill. Luckily for
her, her father was also present and quickly acted.
Amy Winehouse’s health has suffered greatly due to her
history of drug problems. It was only a year ago, around the time she married
Blake Fielder-Civil in May, that she mischievously told reporters she was a
“nasty drunk” and that she shied from nothing when she wanted to prove her
point.
What appeared to be rebelliousness and a rocker chick
persona soon turned into a real problem, both for her and her young husband, as
they shifted from one rehabilitation center to another, never staying long
enough to benefit from the treatment.
In August 2007, she was hospitalized after ingesting a mess
of a cocktail with ingredients such as cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, ketamine and
crystal meth. At the time, she initially said she had been hospitalized for
exhaustion.
A couple of months ago, British paper The Sun ran an article
quoting a concerned friend of the singer’s who revealed the above-mentioned incident
had been Winehouse’s first overdose. Her second overdose, the same friend says,
occurred in July of this year, when she allegedly inhaled an “inhuman” amount
of marijuana.
Fielder-Civil was released last month on parole after
serving nearly a year behind bars for assault and obstructing justice. He was
conditioned to enter a rehab center.
