Another Bobbi Kristina Brown update comes through and unfortunately things aren't much better. The twenty-two year-old daughter of the late Whitney Houston is still in a medically-induced coma and dependent on life support after suffering from a near-drowning accident in a bathtub last January 31.
Although the incident is eerily similar to her mother's tragic death, family and friends are hopeful Bobbi Kristina will pull through. The young starlet's father Bobby Brown and grandmother Cessa Houston have been by her side in the weeks since her accident, and both have been careful in revealing specifics about her well-being. Still, fans are hoping each Bobbi Kristina Brown update would offer good news.
In an interview with Extra, Dr. Sasan Yadegar of Dignity Health Northridge Hospital and Trauma Center remains optimistic regarding Bobbi Kristina conditions. Although news have been slow on a Bobbi Kristina Brown update, Dr. Yadegar assures that it's not uncommon for patients with this type of brain injury to take three to six months to regain consciousness. The neurosurgeon explains that Bobbi Kristina's youth gives her a better chance of survival and recovery.
Despite the encouraging words, Dr. Yadegar cautions the recovery from brain damage might be slow and painful. Long-term rehabilitation would be necessary, as well as patience as Bobbi Kristina would have to re-learn simple tasks such as walking and speaking. She sums up with, "To expect a full recovery is absolutely not possible."
While the Bobbi Kristina Brown update remains full of speculation and guarded words, her beau Nick Gordon is once again in the spotlight after his controversial appearance on the Dr. Phil Show. The twenty-five year-old, who was determined high by television guru Dr. Phil, has entered rehab for his emotional turmoil as well as alcohol and substance abuse. This comes after being accused by Bobbi Kristina's aunt Pat Houston accused Gordon of attempted murder of Bobbi Kristina.
