Releases statement
Brown releases a statement regarding Bobbi Kristina. Brown asks that the media not believe relatives who are unfamiliar with Bobbi Kristina’s condition:
At this time it is requested that the media cease speaking with unauthorized members of the family. The integrity of the events that led to the hospitalization of Bobbi Kristina must remain uncompromised. Various members of the family have provided media interviews, however, none of them are approved visitors to see Bobbi Kristina. None of them have firsthand knowledge of Bobbi Kristina’s treatment and the medical staff at Emory University Hospital has not communicated with them. In [particular], Jerod Brown aka Jerod Carter aka YF Kennedy, continues to [make] statements and appear on television, however, he has not had any communication with Bobby Brown or the Houston family. He must be disregarded. Please do not attend any ‘meet and greet’ organized by Jerod Brown as he is unable to provide access to Bobbi Kristina or information on her condition. This is a criminal investigation and we do not need this side show.
Dr. Phil breakdown
During an interview with Dr. Phil, Gordon has an on-air breakdown, admits to drug use, and says he cannot cope with Houston’s death and the possible loss of long-time girlfriend, Brown. Gordon’s mother:
As we sit here right now, my son’s life hangs in the balance. When Whitney was found, he administered CPR to her and called me as he was standing in front of her saying, ‘Mom, why couldn’t I do it? I couldn’t get air into her lungs. He won’t let go of the guilt.
Irreversible brain damage
Houston issues a statement saying that Brown’s prognosis is unclear.
While she is no longer in a medically induced coma she has a tracheotomy and according to the doctors she has global and irreversible brain damage and remains unresponsive…Meeting with the doctors and understanding that she can live in this condition for a lifetime truly saddens me. We can only trust in God for a miracle at this time.
Condition worsens
Bobbi Kristina is removed from the hospital, taken off all medications and moved to hospice care, after being taken to Chicago on a medical plane to see specialists. Source:
They too confirmed what Atlanta doctors had been saying that there was no hope. That’s when she was taken off all meds and any artificial means of support. It seems that he [Bobby Brown] had to get a certain amount of confirmation before really letting go. That trip is what convinced him to allow them to take her off her meds and to ‘go naturally
She barely has any signs of life, hardly any vitals. Security has been beefed up and even local law enforcement have been called because the families have been told that death is now imminent and they want to make sure that photographers don’t get pictures of her body being removed.
‘She was a good girl’
Warwick pays tribute to Brown on Watch What Happens Live:
She was a sweetheart, she will be missed — she was a good girl. It’s not easy. It’s [manageable] because of our faith that Bobbi is with a much bigger and more powerful person, or thing, that she’s in much better hands now.
To be buried alongside mother
A family source says Kristina’s funeral service this week in Atlanta, Ga., her body will be flown to New Jersey where she will be buried alongside her mother in Fairview Cemetery in Westfield, New Jersey.
‘She was an angel’
Brown releases a statement following Bobbi Kristina’s death:
Krissy was and is an angel. I am completely numb at this time. My family must find a way to live with her in spirit and honor her memory. Our loss is unimaginable. We thank everyone for the prayers for Krissy and our family as we mourn my baby girl.
Mother: Gordon ‘devastated’
Gordon’s mother speaks on behalf of her son:
The passing of Bobbi Kristina is devastating to Nick and our family. Nick loved and cared for Krissi deeply, and he has suffered greatly each and every day they’ve been apart. Nick and our family are in mourning, and we ask that you respect our privacy. Our thoughts and prayers are with both the Houstons and the Browns during this difficult time.
Funeral disrupted
The fued between family members on Bobbi Kristina’s mother’s and father’s sides continues during the funeral when her father’s sister leaves the service to talk with reporters. She says she is angry because Houston’s sister in law is speaking at the funeral.
It went wonderful until Pat started speaking, and I didn’t like that. I told her that Whitney is going to haunt her from the grave. [This dispute] is going to be a long, drawn-out thing. Trust me. It’s not over.
