Cissy Houston has released a statement in which she revealed that Bobbi Kristina has “global and irreversible brain damage”.
The 81-year-old former singer broke the sad update just weeks after her granddaughter was transferred from hospital to a rehabilitation clinic.
Cissy told People magazine: “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 added, sadly: “Meeting with the doctors and understanding that she can live in this condition for a lifetime truly saddens me. We can only trust in God for a miracle at this time. Keep us in your prayers.”
Bobbi Kristina was rushed to hospital at the end of January after being found unconscious in a bathtub in her Georgia home. She was later put into an induced coma, and was removed to a rehab facility last month.
Our thoughts and prayers remain with Bobbi Kristina and her family.
