What disease does Katie Price mother Amy Price have?

Amy Price has been diagnosed with terminal lung condition idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF).

IPF causes scarring on the lungs, which makes it hard for the body to take in oxygen, and gets worse over time.

Amy now uses an oxygen supply at home and is currently based in Spain where she hopes the warmer weather will help her condition.

Katie had said she has come to terms with the diagnosis and is planning for her mother’s funeral because currently there is no cure.

What has Amy Price said about her terminal illness?

In an interview somewhere last year, Amy said she was struggling to cope with her illness and COVID-19.

“What with Covid and everything, if I catch a cold or Covid there’s just no hope, so that would be the end of it for me.

“But I’m pushing to see if I can get on the transplant list, because there is no cure and there’s nothing else they can do for me really.”
