The singer's daughter is in intensive care after being found unresponsive in her bath at home by her 'estranged' husband
Heartbreaking decision
Bobby Brown is reportedly facing the heartbreaking decision over
whether to turn his daughter Bobbi Kristina's life support machine off. The R&B singer, who has daughter Bobbi
with late singer Whitney Houston, has been by his daughter's hospital
bedside since the weekend, after she was found unresponsive in her bath
at home, and later placed in a medically induced coma. “It’s now
a matter of when the family wants to let go and accept that she’s
pretty much not going to make it,” a source told FOX411. They added: “They’ve left it up to the family as to how long they want to keep her alive." And
according to TMZ, Bobby doesn't want to face the difficult decision
until after the weekend, because he remains hopeful her condition will
improve.

It couldn't come at a more difficult time, as today
is Bobby's birthday, and next week marks the third anniversary of
Whitney's death. The 21-year-old remains fighting for her life in hospital days after she was discovered face down in water. It follows reports she had shown a small response to tests on her brain - and family and friends are praying for her to pull through. Whitney's friend Kelly Price asked for prayers for Bobbi at a tribute evening to the late singer last night. Kelly
opened the For the Love of R&B: A Tribute to Whitney Houston event
in Hollywood by calling for people to send "love and well wishes" to the
21-year-old aspiring actress. Kelly said: "Bobbi Kristina is in the hospital and her condition is very serious.

"I will say this one thing and this one
thing only: Please continue to pray for her as she fights for her life.
She is a young woman who deserves a chance to live and to thrive and
experience the greatness that is inside of her and come into her own. "I
will ask you all to say a prayer. If prayer is not your thing, send
love. Send your love and well wishes to the entire family." Later
in the show, Kelly and Faith Evans gave an emotional rendition of
Heartbreak Hotel, which they originally sang with Whitney, who was found
dead in the bathtub of her hotel room in February 2012. Kelly
told the crowd: "Speak well of Whitney Houston. She deserves that from
us. Keep her family in your prayers. Keep Bobbi Kristina in your
prayers, if anyone can do it god can." Kelly - who hasn't seen
Bobbi Kristina for over a year - revealed before the show she had been
in contact with the troubled youngster's family and they welcomed
people's prayers.

Kris is fighting for her life. I dare not say much more than that but I
do ask for people to pray, to respect their privacy and to remember
that this is a young woman who lost her mother at 18 years old and was
never given the opportunity to properly mourn her because there was
always a camera in her face. "The concern for Bobbi Kristina is wonderful to express and we all feel that concern. I am speaking with the family."
