Bobbi Kristina is NOT 'Awake,' She Remains Comatose

Last weekend, Bobby Brown was performing somewhere and he told the crowd about Bobbi Kristina's miraculous recovery."Bobbi is awake. She's watching me," he said. The truth is, Bobbi Kristina, who has been been in coma and brain dead since January when she was found facedown in a bathtub full of water, remains comatose.

Bobbi Kristina did not regain consciousness in a miracle recovery, despite her dad's shock statement she was "awake," a well-placed source said Monday. The only child of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown remains comatose in a private rehabilitation hospital, the source said. "His statements were not accurate. She remains unresponsive," the source told the Daily News. Still, Bobby Brown doubled down Monday afternoon saying his daughter is improving — and that doctors believe the 22-year-old will survive for years to come. "Bobbi Kristina's condition has changed since moving from Emory University Hospital and there has been improvement," his lawyer Christopher Brown said in a statement to The News. "Doctors have indicated that she will have a long life," he said. "However, Bobbi Kristina is presently embarking on a rehabilitation process and the quality of her life will not be known for years to come." The lawyer did not specify whether or not doctors believe her longterm survival would require life support. Bobby Brown's wife Alicia Etheredge-Brown also issued a statement Monday saying her husband was in "an emotional state" when he appeared to tell a crowd at the Verizon Theatre in Grand Prairie, Texas, on Saturday night that his daughter was coherent. [...] "He is encouraged by the steps that Bobbi Kristina has made since her hospitalization on January 31, 2015. She has made it out of ICU, opened her eyes, and started a rehabilitation that will be long and hard," Etheredge-Brown said Monday. "We will hold on to all the blessings God gives us to help her at this time, and we look forward to her having a relationship with her unborn sister as our family grows in love and faith," she said, confirming her pregnancy again. "I just wish my husband could deal with this most painful and difficult time with people surrounding him who fully support and pray for Bobbi Kristina's recovery and only her recovery. Life is the most precious thing that we all have," she said. ... [Bobbi Kristina] remains on a ventilator, TMZ.com reported Monday. "She's in the exact same condition she was in when she went into the facility," an unidentified Houston family source told the website. She's showing only "minimal" reaction in the form of an occasional eye blink, the source told TMZ.
