UPDATE: Bobbi Kristina Brown-Her father, Bobby Brown and Tyler Perry are currently by her side, as it's feared her condition has significantly diminished

UPDATE Bobbi Kristina Brown Her father Bobby Brown and Tyler Perry are currently by her side as it s feared her condition has significantly diminished
Date Posted: Monday, February 2nd, 2015
Bobbi Kristina Brown's husband looked anxious and upset outside the hospital where his wife lay in a medically induced coma last night.

Nick Gordon stood with his hood half over his head, clutching a mobile phone by the entrance to the emergency ward at North Fulton Hospital near Atlanta, Georgia.

His 21-year-old wife was last reported in stable condition in a medically induced coma, but sources close to the family told TMZ that her brain function has 'significantly diminished'.

She was found face-down in a bath tub on Saturday night, circumstances eerily similar to the death of her mother, Whitney Houston, in February 2012.

Bobbi's father Bobby Brown is currently by her side, praying for her recovery with family friend Tyler Perry among others, TMZ reported.

'Privacy is requested in this matter. Please allow for my family to deal with this matter and give my daughter the love and support she needs at this time,' Bobby Brown said in a statement.

A source told People of Brown 'This is his worst nightmare. Losing Whitney was hard, but this is a million times worse, and to lose her in the same way would devastate him.

The source described Brown as 'inconsolable,' and said the singer's daughter is using a respirator and that her brain has hardly any activity.

'Everyone is holding hands, praying, hoping for the best. Everyone knows where things are at,' the source also said.

Meanwhile, Roswell Police representative Lisa Holland told Us Weekly 'We don't leave any stone unturned. So the police took a search warrant on the home.

'Before the warrant, initially when the police went into the home there were nothing there that indicated that anything out of the ordinary happened. There were no drugs out in the open.

It's still uncertain what caused the medical emergency Saturday morning at the home Bobbi Kristina shares with Gordon.

However, family members are now starting to reveal Bobbi Kirstina's life these past three years as she battled to make a name for herself as a singer and mourn the passing of her beloved mother.

One source close to Bobbi told People that she 'has been vacillating between extremes for a while now and is fighting grief and demons of her own creation.

'The loss of her mom and her intense craving for attention of any sort are just the tip of her mountain of issues,' the source added.

And now sources close to Bobbi Kristina Brown are expressing little hope of a recovery.

Her husband Nick Gordon discovered her unconscious in a bathtub at their Roswell, Georgia home around 10:25am Saturday morning - in the same home they shared with Houston.

Gordon performed CPR on his wife until paramedics arrived on the scene and rushed her to North Fulton Hospital.

Her mother was found dead almost three years ago when she accidentally drowned in a bath tub at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel - she too was fase down.

In a statement the Roswell Police Department said: 'Her husband and a friend located her in a bath tub this morning and she was unresponsive.

'He started CPR and a police officer took over life-saving measures until an ambulance arrived.

The friend telephoned for help as Gordon worked at saving his wife.

The unresponsive reality TV star was immediately transferred to North Fulton Hospital where she is still being treated in ICU, according to TMZ who describe her current condition as stable.

It is as yet unclear what caused her collapse and a police search of the home turned up no drugs.

'Obviously we all know her mom died this very same way,' Lisa Holland of the Roswell PD has said.

'Can't say how sad this is. It's a difficult situation for police officer to perform CPR on any person.

At a press conference outside the hospital on Saturday afternoon Holland confirmed 'she is still alive and breathing. Other than that, I don't know her condition.

She added that nobody knows what caused her collapse but that, police are talking to friends and family and obtaining a search warrant so they can look through the residence.

'We don't know if this was a medical condition where she had a problem in the tub or if it was any type of self-initiated or overdose type of situation,' Holland said at the time.

Police were last called to the home on January 23rd after a 'reported fight,' but officers found no one home when they arrived.

'She's been through a lot, you know what I'm saying. This is a hard time, it's her mother's anniversary of her death. It's been a hard time, it's a rough time of year,' Jerod Brown, who said he was Bobbi Kristina Brown's first cousin, told NBC News.

'But she's a tiger, she's going to pull through it.

He then added: 'Kris has been doing well, working out. She's been in the gym, doing cardio. ... Swimming a lot, getting her vocals right for this album that she's about to come out with.

Brown, who is also known as YF Kennedy, told E! News; 'Krissi doesn't do drugs. She hasn't been drinking or doing drugs and she's cut down on cigarettes. She's been trying to get her music together and keep her voice clean. Her voice is so beautiful.

'

Kennedy also said; 'She's still been going through the grieving stages but is trying to keep her spirits up. She's been going to the gym every day with her husband and trying to be happy. She swims a lot.

Businessman and friend Sammy Tawil told The New York Daily News of Bobbi Kristina's current medical condition 'There's people who want to say it's bleak, but there shouldn't be any rush. The family is concerned, but they're hopeful. She's a fighter. She's a lot like her mom.

Tawil also said Bobbi Kristina informed him on Friday of her plans to travel to Los Angeles and head to a recording studio.

A source recently told People 'I don't want to blame Nick for any drug use, because that's not fair. Bobby was blamed for Whitney's drug use, and that always bothered him. She was a grown woman who made her own choices.

'Krissy makes her own choices, too. No one influences her to do anything she doesn't want to do; she's stubborn just like both of her parents. Nick may not be the best influence on her, but she makes her own choices.

The source told the news outlet 'She said, "I know how my mother died, and I've learned from her mistakes." She seemed very adamant.

On January 26th, Whitney's daughter made reference to the upcoming anniversary with an emotional tweet.

She posted: 'Littlelady & yourgrowing young man @nickgordon miss you mommy so much...loving you more every sec, #Anniversary!'

Speaking to Oprah Winfrey about her mother’s death in March 2012, Bobbi said: ‘It’s so surreal sometimes. I still walk in the house and call her name.

‘She’s always with me. I can always feel her with me.

‘She used to say, “Do you need me?” and I would say, “I always need you.’”

In an admission, Bobbi told Oprah in 2012 she can’t bring herself to listen to her mother’s songs. ‘I can hear her voice telling me to keep moving, baby – I gotcha.

Her mother Whitney died on February 11th, 2012 hours before she was due to attend a pre Grammy Awards party.

The Los Angeles County coroner’s office later confirmed the I Will Always Love You hitmaker passed away as a result of drowning and 'effects of atherosclerotic heart disease and cocaine use.

The death of her mother left Bobbi distraught, and this is not the first time emergency services have had to intervene.

Bobbi was rushed to hospital in 2012, a year after her mother died, after taking a sedative with alcohol.

She was hospitalised for treatment, after mixing alcohol with a sedative.

Even before Whitney died Bobbi Kristina was the subject of rumours as to her alleged use of drugs.

In March 2011 she took to Twitter to deny claims she had checked into rehab after pictures surfaced that allegedly showed her snorting lines of cocaine.

At the time her mother was said to have desperately pushed the teenager to seek treatment soon after, with no success.

'Excuse me,' Bobbi Kristina tweeted, 'but I’d like to say that I am NOT going to rehab? I’m perfectly healthy and I am not addicted to anything but life.

The National Enquirer, which published the pictures, reported that Whitney had attempted an intervention of sorts.

Further pictures published by the tabloid in March 2012 shortly after Whitney's death showed Bobbi apparently using a three-foot bong to smoke marijuana.

A recent Lifetime biopic of Whitney focused heavily on her drug use, received mixed reviews from viewers.

Bobbi did not comment on the movie after it aired earlier this month, although she had expressed her displeasure in advance.

Her grandmother Cissy was the most outspoken, angrily objecting to the movie even being made.

'Lifetime has chosen to go ahead with the movie about Whitney in spite of my family's objections,' the bereaved mother said in a statement to Entertainment Tonight.

'No one connected with this movie knew Whitney or anything about her relationship with Bobby.

After her mother's death, Bobbi began a relationship with Nick who was described as like being a brother to her as she grew up.

The couple married in January 2014 but faced criticism after it emerged they had shared a home since before they were teens.

But they have insisted they are not blood related and are not even connected in any family way as Gordon was never adopted by Houston.

In late January Nick told Extra the jabs 'put a fire in us' and added: 'The critics can say whatever they want to say… it's like we have a force field and that s**t's just bouncing off of it.

The two became friends when Whitney asked Nick, who was going through a rough time, to move in with them when he was only 12 years old.

But the relationship heightened a rift between her and her grandmother, Cissy who she fell out with when the matriach announced plans to write a book about her tragic daughter's life.

And in July 2013, Cissy penned an open letter to her granddaughter airing her concerns about her well-being.

She wrote: Krissi, all I want for you is your good health and your happiness.

'Do I want you to get married in the near future? No, I don't. I think you're too young and I wish you'd wait.

'But that's because I'm Grandma," she continues. 'I'm supposed to worry about you. I'm supposed to wonder if Nick or ANY man is good enough for you, My Baby's Baby.
