That's at least the end of her career then.  Silly girl.

She only has traces of the disease so it won't stop her working as it should go away - if she gives up smoking they say.

If Amy stops smoking, it's not going to interfere with her singing and she probably won't have any trouble from it."

I've just read that report and as far as I thought Emphysema is a permanent condition. I didn't know it could be reversed. 

I think they are making a drama out  of a crisis with their report.
