Family Believes Amy Winehouse Died from Alcohol Withdrawal
Category : Women Diary
The cause of Amy Winehouse’s death isn’t yet known as the toxicology report could take weeks to complete. However, according to police there was no paraphernalia or sign of drugs in her Camden home. While sources told Britain’s Sun newspaper that at her last night she had seen a doctor for regular checkups of her battle with addiction and the doctor claimed there is nothing wrong with her. She was even strong enough to play a drum kit loudly that night that the neighbors complained.
As there was no medical explanation yet regarding her death, according to People, Winehouse’s family had stated that she died from alcohol withdrawal. A source close to the family revealed that Winehouse has quitted drinking cold turkey within the past month and such condition sent a state of shock to her body.
Mitch Winehouse, Amy’s father, had also told the mourners at her funeral that his daughter had ignored doctors’ orders to gradually stop consuming alcohol to avoid the withdrawal symptoms.
Regardless her family speculations, Dr. Drew from ‘Celebrity Rehab’ disagreed with the theory. He said that the condition may kill the person gradually that first you will get really really sick, cease, and become encephalopathic and confused while your heart becomes erratic. So it’s not like the person just dropped dead instantly.
As the autopsy, which took place at the St. Pancras Mortuary, London, has not established the cause of death yet, reports stated that the results are expected in two or four weeks after further toxicology tests.
Winehouse’s close friend and collaborator Mark Ronson accompanied by Dave McCabe (the writer of ‘Valerie’), held tribute concert on July 27 at the Old Royal Naval College in London, to pay homage to the friend whom he thinks was a genius and special. In the concert, he even told the crowd that Winehouse is “my sister, wherever she is.”
The lives of celebrities who have died alcohol-related deaths could have been saved if only they were brought to any center for helping alcoholics in time.
