Bobbi Kristina Brown, Whitney Houston’s only child, was discovered unconscious and not breathing Saturday morning inside a bathtub at her home in Georgia. It was a scene that was eerily reminiscent of the same way her mother died.
Brown, 21, was reportedly revived and swiftly taken to a neighboring hospital after her husband and one of her friends found her in the tub, full of water at their residential Atlanta home about 10:15 a.m. At the hospital, the young woman was reportedly put into a medically induced coma due to swelling on her brain, reported NY Daily News. It was stated that an anonymous source allegedly said that Bobbi’s diagnosis was touch-and-go and that it looked grim at the present time.
The source added that things “did not look good” and that both the circumstances and timing of what had occurred were not any kind of coincidence. The source explained that Bobbi Kristina’s problems were so much ”deeper than everyone could see.”
Bobbi’s husband Nick Gordon reportedly instantly began performing CPR on his unresponsive wife, aiding in saving her life. This occurred just over 10 days before the third anniversary of Brown’s mother Whitney Houston’s drug riddled bathtub drowning, which happened in Beverly Hills.
Bobbi Kristina’s father, R&B singer Bobby Brown, was reported to be on the way to the Roswell, Georgia hospital where his daughter was said to be surrounded by friends and family waiting to hear any news of change in her condition.
A Roswell police spokesperson stated that all she knew was that Brown was still alive and breathing, but other that, she had no information on the young woman’s condition. Even though no specific details have been released about the near fatal episode, both the similarities and the timing has automatically revived thoughts about Brown’s Grammy winning mother Houston and her own demise. The spokesperson brought up Houston’s death during a news conference, stating that it was obvious because Houston had died in the same manner.
Bobbi, who is both an aspiring actress and also singer, was placed in the hospital for major depression after Houston’s Feb. 11, 2012 death, and also allegedly fought a drinking problem in the later months. There were other reports that stated the young woman was supposedly snorting cocaine after she attended her mother’s funeral in New Jersey.
Songwriter Diane Warren sent out a tweet that stated she hoped Bobbi Kristina was able to get the help she needed. Warren had written seven songs Whitney recorded. Warren brought up the timing again and stated about it being almost three years to the day that her mother had passed away and the same thing almost ended up happening to Bobbi.
Brown herself had sent a cheerful tweet out just this past Thursday focused on her professional aspirations. She had written about how she wanted to let her career start up and move out. Yet another one she sent to a friend appeared to sound distraught, “Sarah, I miss and need you.”
There was yellow police crime scene tape blocking off the front part of the house in Roswell. That was where Brown and Gordon had lived for about a year. Law enforcement were both there and also at the Roswell Hospital, and they were attempting to obtain search warrants so they would be able to go through the home and make sure they had all bases covered, stated the police spokesperson.
The Georgia State Police are also speaking with family and friends that happened to be at the home at the time of the event to see if there could have been an outside cause, or if it was due to health conditions.
