Whitney Houston’s mother Cissy Houston disputes Bobby Brown’s shocking announcement that Bobbi Kristina Brown is awake and responsive.
Brown, 46, made the surprise announcement during a concert at the Verizon Theatre in Grand Prairie, Texas, on Saturday.
He told the stunned crowd that Bobbi K. was “awake” and “she’s watching me.” He added that she was off the ventilator and “breathing on her own.”
Brown’s pregnant wife Alicia Etheredge-Brown added to the confusion by confirming Brown’s statement that Bobbi K. was “awake.”
“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 in a statement released on Monday.
But in a statement obtained by E! Online on Monday Ms. Houston contradicted reports that Bobbi was awake and responsive.
“I have just returned from visiting my granddaughter Bobbi Kristina in the hospital and 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,” she said in the statement.
Ms. Houston said she was saddened to learn that her granddaughter can remain on machines in a perpetual vegetative state for the rest of her life.
“Meeting with the doctors and understanding that she can live in this condition for a lifetime truly saddens me,” Cissy said. “We can only trust in God for a miracle at this time. Keep us in your prayers.”
Bobbi Kristina, 22, was found face down and unresponsive in a bathtub at her Roswell home on Jan. 31.
After brief stays at North Fulton and Emory hospitals she was moved to DeKalb Medical Center’s long term acute care facility in Decatur. The length of stay for long term ventilator-dependent patients at DeKalb is usually 30 days. After that they are moved to a nursing home that provides skilled nursing care for ventilator-dependent patients.

I feel bad for Bobby and both families. This has to be one of the hardest things in the world to do.
Good Morning Roses :wave:
*sneaks in back door*
Hey yall
This is sad as heck
*sneaks out back door*
Morning All…goes and take a nap.

@Taken
from down stairs..again
This is so sad. As a mother, I just don’t know.
…and 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,”
—————————————-
Cissy about them facts. You can tell the relationship between both families are strained and will continue to be.
Just awful
Good mornin everyone.
This is truly sad. When I heard on the news yesterday morning that she was up, I was so happy for them. Then I seen it was a false story. I guess Bobby wants it to be so badly.
Good morning
I don’t have much for this story except it’s just sad for both parties
Bobby’s wife needs to
It’s ok to say you prefer not to comment. Don’t aggravate Cissy further by putting info out there that the press then contacts her about. This is hard enough on everyone that loves Bobbi Kristina I’m sure without this kind of back and forth.
This is so sad
for a miracle.
In other news the FBI has formally acknowledged that nearly every examiner in an elite FBI forensic unit gave flawed testimony in more than 95pct of trials in which they offered evidence against criminal defendants over more than a two decade period before 2000.
Defendants in 32 of the 268 cases reviewed so far were sentenced to death. Of those, 14 have already been executed or died in prison. THIS is why I am against the death penalty.
Bless her
WATCH: Police Officer Investigated for Taser Incident Involving Unarmed Teen
WVEC
Police in Virginia Beach say they are investigating an officer’s use of force after he appeared to use a stun gun on a teenager twice, which was caught on citizen-recorded cellphone video.
The incident began at a traffic stop Jan. 10, the Virginia Beach Police Department said in a statement Thursday.
In the exchange, which appears to be filmed from the perspective of the driver’s side dashboard, the officer says the teen driver is being detained because of the smell of marijuana in the car.
The officer can be heard repeatedly telling the driver and teenage passenger in the back seat to get out of the car, but the teens stay inside. The driver can be heard saying the “video” is on.
The male passenger says to the officer, who is off-camera, “I’m 17 years old, stop. Stop it now. Stop it, I’m calling my mother, stop it. I’m 17 years old, stop it. I’m 17 years old. I’m 17 years old.”
The officer says several times to “get out” or “you’re going to get tased.”
The dramatic video, obtained by ABC News affiliate station WVEC-TV, then captures the male passenger screaming in pain from the electric shock of the stun gun.
The officer then tells the passenger to get out of the car or he’ll be stunned again, and after the passenger ignores the officer’s request, the cop uses the stun-gun for the second time.
Police Chief Jim Cervera said today he was “very uncomfortable” watching the video, according to WVEC, and promised a full investigation.
The video stops after an officer picks up the phone, WVEC reported.
Police said Thursday they recovered narcotics and made arrests during the incident, although it’s unclear whether they were charged because Virginia Beach police do not release information on juveniles. The lawyer for the teen who was stun-gunned would not comment on possible charges but said the traffic stop was initiated because of a brake light. Police, who have not commented beyond their written statement, did not offer a reason for the stop.
“The Virginia Beach Police Department immediately began investigating this incident based on the officer’s self-reported Use of Force Report and video captured from the officer’s TASER camera submitted the night of the incident,” the police department said in a press release. The police department said the investigation was not based on a citizen complaint and said it wasn’t aware of the citizen-recorded video until Thursday.
The unnamed officer involved is on administrative duty, police said.
The teen driver is “certain” police deleted her video of the incident, she told WVEC.
After she got her phone back, she noticed the “video was in my recently deleted folder,” according to WVEC, but it was still retrievable.
Chief Cervera said it would be a “big problem” if an officer deleted the video, WVEC reported today.
Gary C. Byler, an attorney for the family of the male teen, told ABC News that the family wants to thank the police department and is happy the police are investigating.
Byler said in a statement today on behalf of the family, “While the family is understandably shaken by the violent nature of the video they are willing to give the internal Virginia Beach Police investigation a chance to be completed. The family is grateful the Department began in investigation on its own and trusts they will conduct a thorough investigation using all video evidence available.
As alarming as the apparent violence is the allegation that a member of the Virginia Beach Police Department attempted to delete the images. The family believes civilian videos are an important component of civil order.”

Downstairs, we blacks will begin to be HNIC on a lot of things, they can get use to it or kiss our assets on their way out.
On topic, it appears Houston family may have made peace with BobbiK being with her mother while BobbyB is still unwilling to face it. I think, JMO now, don’t spit on me
BobbyB is wrestling with his guilt of not being there for his daughter more. He probly feeling if he had, he may have been able to prevent it.
Bobby’s wife needs to
It’s ok to say you prefer not to comment.

No Bobby is the one that needs not to comment!! That’s private information and I believe Cissy more than Bobby with his demons and all.

I agree. if that had been a Black kid, he woulda been dragged out, then shot and killed for “lunging at the officer who then became in fear of his life”. the driver woulda been drug out of the car, slammed to the ground, kicked, punched, etc. then hog tied. #whiteprivilege

@Whitty, put your personal feelings aside for a minute. What harm would it do for Luda to allow Cai to facetime with her bio mom who has neva harmed her? We get on women who keep their children from their fathers out of spite but we giving Luda a pass becuz Tamika was greedy? That’s
Ya’ll read them text from “Chris” and that girl, she really need to sit down and pick up the damn phone
I could be wrong.. but we all know that never happens *flips hair over my shoulder*
What I got from that was:
I ain’t got to do nothing you ask for if it isn’t in this court order including calls and FaceTime. She said her daughter speaks very well and can hold conversations and he was like FOH it ain’t in the court order so leave me be you already see her like once a week bih
#pettybetty
She can’t win right now. She needs to lay low and wait for the new baby to get here. Then they will forget about hers 
___________________________
Nah dawg
“Chris” is being real stank and using the
She was trying to be funny by calling him “Luda” in the hopes that the email would get leaked and everybody would know it was him
He was really trying to throw shade in her face that he won but tried to hide it by saying RESPECTFULLY 50-11 times
She is never going to get another hearing ever if she keeps letting this play out like this. Even though I feel sorry for her losing her child when there was no allegations of abuse or present misconduct this is not going to touch this or the judge’s heart. It is clear they are TEAM LUDA and anything she does at this point exasperates them and forces retaltiation
Yea, Take Take I couldn’t believe Bobby either.
Size 7 feet huh Zeta…good for you…*stank lip curl*
How are you @Zeta?
AWWW!!!! I was going to say also I was reading abt you and the fam. getting ready to ETS from the service and I correct
Respectfully, (see what I did there. Fool musta just learned the word) what’s the harm in FaceTime with the baby. He doing the same thing she did. So what she was not a good mom to her first. She has changed. Even the grown daughter testified as much. That negro LIED and said he made WAAAAAAYY less than he did. THEN, in order to not pay more money, he steals custody. FOB, or not he a bum.
Razzle Dazzle wear u been
‘cris is a fukk boi
Respectfully that is 
I believe in calling a spade a spade. & right now he’s being extra spadey. SMH. Only person getting truly hurt is Cai

I said that from time to time I might have had irritation of the toe against my shoe but NEBER did I say it was rebellious and growing life on it :stop: STOPRIGHTTHERE! You done went too GATDURN FAR :crying1: I do not need a check for my intelligence toe. We is wise We is kind We is important
ask taken about that silver dollar-sized bunion she got on that eskra long ass toe?!? talmbout it means “intelligence”…
____________________________
I read it and ppl like Luda u have to left GOD deal with. he think he on top now bc he has money, connection etc and she doesn’t. he has no mercy on her. Won’t let her talk to her own daughter. Its sick. I think we finding out what type of man he really is.
@MOD (points toes showing arch w/ fresh “sherbert” pedicure)
@TAKEN I agree, it’s just I can’t stand “sosha” media and airing out your biz like that (people are shocked here that I don’t have FB)
Smh had the bm lied about her money to avoid CS she would have been thrown under the bus. But for Chris everyone looks the other way. Also I mean you done took the girl child, let her face time the baby. What harm would it do? But the fact that he’s acting like a donkey and the “WIFE” AIN’T SAYING ISH TO HIM…… Nuh
I see we all RESPECTFULLY getting some stuff off our chest
WHALE since we putting it out there *looks around for a backpack* I say he can EAT A HUNNAD DACKS
FAST AND FURIOUSLY 
@misu.
I don’t have any personal feelings…we simply disagree on this particular matter. that is all. yall can drag that man through the mud for all I care. 
I won’t participate because there’s only one side putting out information to the public, hence painting a one-sided picture. whose to say what phone conversations or other contact between the two took place PRIOR TO these emails, tweets, or whatever they are? I’m always skeptical when one person is constantly running to the public in an attempt to garner sympathy. it’s obvious there’s more to this case than what she is putting out there.

I went and read the emails. He does not like that woman AT ALL. So Cai is happy and better than ever now that he and Excrement have custody huh? So is that what the situation is, they’re going to treat Cai like their own and try to erase Tamika? It seems like he is trying to create a situation where Tamika becomes a stranger to her own child.

Luda is just messy. Let the nanny facetime the mama 3x a week. It’s just good for your child.
Folks on other blogs especially men where like
women do it all the time. And it’s not right then either fools. These are children’s lives here. Why adults play so fast and loose with them is beyond me.
Morning all
I didnt see the texts with Luda and his baby mama but this is why she would never win in a GA court. First Tamika shouldve been willing to accept the financial contributions Luda was giving her, however she wanted to play hardball and go to court. That for one is seen by the courts as being greedy. Next she had a child taken away in the past, if you know the system then you know thats a
with these judges. Finally like the judge told her in the previous hearing stop putting things out there in the public and obviously she has not heard or learned. I can understand Luda’s position, he may want to allow it but when you dealing with shady characters sometimes it is better to follow whatever orders have been set in place
ok guys its almost 9am, and I actually got to do some work and see a couple people HAVE A GREAT MORNING ROSES
ya’ll
I say he can EAT A HUNNAD DACKS ? FAST AND FURIOUSLY ?

==================
What could the father of your children do that would make you not allow a 3rd party to operate Facetime for 10 minutes so the kids could blow kisses through the phone??
I mean outside of physical or sexual abuse toward the kids, I can’t think of anything.
He does not like that woman AT ALL.

Luda is just messy. Let the nanny facetime the mama 3x a week. It’s just good for your child.
cause we all know Eczema ain’t raising that baby. The nanny is. She prolly do her like Gab U was doing her break baby. Mashing the baby in the head on accident.. Not putting pink oil in the baby head so it mat up and then be like
yo baby got peasy head Luda.. she just a silly ole heffa. Then be making the baby watch tv shows in Ukrainian when he ain’t around and be like
your baby is slow just like her mama.

This uppity negro like as Cai father refer to me as Cheis. Boi stawp. What got Eucalyptus. He is showing you what he will do.
Did you guys see the former face known as Lil Kim’s???? Like wtf

just frickin ignant!!!
Eulogies figures she’s set. She might be. When they negotiated that prenup if she has any sense she made sure he can’t do her like he’s doing Tamika. She’s over there blowing her nail polish dry and taking selfies in the house and car she gets IF they divorce, unbothered.
Not saying it is right but it happens.
==============
Glad you said it
It’s a baby, not a bargaining chip. And courts will exchange custody if they believe one parent will be better at facilitating a relationship with the other parent. Revenge will have you lose how you got ’em.

Isn’t that how they got here though.
Wasn’t like either were making the best choices for the baby.
She should let the courts handle it, I don’t see how leaking the emails to the media will help her in the court of law, it will help that go fund me account.

====================
Missy one thing i hate is a big ol machine that only does one thing. I hate taking up counter space too. Plus soda makes me fat/bloated. Titties be feeling like they gonna explode
Go to costco & watch the demo. I think its dumb tho. Personally.
I cannot say I agree with her methods. But who is to say that she is doing it for shady reasons? I think it is obvious at this point that to certain judges and primarily in Atl money rules. Especially for men. She might have thought that her only chance of getting a fair shake would be in the court of public opinion and that could balance out his obvious financial influence. Obviously that was incorrect
But I don’t think she should be vilified for that. I mean it’s funny how Chris #respectfully releases stuff on certain blogs…website..etc to make himself look as a struggling pillar of the community but that gets washed away.
As for her being a bad mom before even her older daughter testified in court that she was a good mother to Cai and she was only angry now because she was jealous she didn’t get the same relationship at that early age
People have pasts. I feel like some are inferring that she should never be allowed to have another child. She was in high school I think when she had her daughter? A child for the most part. I think they should have had joint custody and the judge could have done that. Or at least made the visitation more even. He ruled with venom against the lady like she had spit (#WHANG) in his face and abused the baby.
ok taken, we get it.
he’s the most horrible human being on the face of the earth, just plain wrong and should be put to death for taking that poor, innocent woman’s child. 
sheesh, there’s dissenting opinions on the topic. one side isn’t any more “right” than the other because none of us know all of the facts.
