In 'Sweeney Todd,' Depp plays the main character in the film, which is a screen adaptation of Stephen Sondheim’s macabre musical about a vengeful London barber in 19th-century London, according to CBS.
A hospital source is quoted by Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper as saying:
"They are worried sick, but Lily-Rose is getting the very best treatment
available. Johnny has not asked for any special favors but just wants the
best for his child, like any parent.
"It is such a difficult time for him but he is hanging in there for the sake
of his daughter and the whole family is just praying that she gets better.
They are taking each day as it comes.
"It's been an emotional rollercoaster for all of them, and he has been
finding it hard keeping it together. He's a devoted dad and is spending as
much time as he can with Lily."
Johnny and Vanessa - who also have a four-year-old son John Jack - have been
using a staff entrance to enter the hospital without attracting attention
and are arriving for visits in a blacked-out car.
The name of the hospital and nature of Lily-Rose's condition is not being published to protect the family's privacy.
The devoted dad usually takes his family with him when he is filming.
Johnny, 43, has often spoken about how his children changed his life for the
better.
He said: "I just want to watch my kids grow up and make sure they're healthy
and happy. They are the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. I never
thought it was possible to feel such profound, deep love.
"Being a dad has given me great strength, great perspective, great calm.
More than anything, I love being with my family."
