Bobbi Kristina, 21, the only daughter of late singer Whitney Houston, is reportedly brain dead. She was found unresponsive in a filled bathtub inside her Georgia home yesterday. Her husband who found her called 911 and she was rushed to the hospital where it was later reported that she was stable and still breathing.
Some sites said she was in a medically induced coma because of brain swelling. Now other media outlets, who claim to have spoken to staff at the hospital where Bobbi Kristina was taken, are going further to say that she's brain dead because of a lengthy lack of oxygen to the brain. They say she had attempted to commit suicide because of some problems with her husband of one year, Nick Gordon.
