Bobbi Kristina Brown's paternal aunt Leolah is denouncing media reports claiming Bobbi Kristina is being brought home to die.
"The BIG lie has been told again that my niece Bobbi Kristina is going to be brought home..only to leave us. (I heard it on the radio about 6am this morning while I was traveling). Please ignore any of these LIES coming from the media," she posted on Facebook Tuesday.
"KNOW FOR CERTAINT THAT: BOBBI KRISTINA BROWN IS "NOT" ON LIFE SUPPORT ANYMORE AND SHE HAS SINCE THE BEGINNING AND AND IS CONTINUING TODAY TO IMPROVE. AND WE WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON HER! HELL NO! NOT ONE BROWN! FURTHERMORE, PAT HOUSTON IS NOT ALLOWED NO WHERE NEAR BOBBI KRISTINA, "PER BOBBI KRISTINA'S REQUEST.""
Leolah Brown went on to express her anger with Pat Houston -- the wife of the brother of Bobbi Kristina's late mother Whitney Houston -- for allegedly suggesting Bobbi Kristina's father Bobby remove Bobbi Kristina from life support shortly after she was discovered facedown and unresponsive in a bathtub filled with water in her Georgia home in January.
Bobbi Kristina, 22, is now being treated at an Atlanta-area rehab after a lengthy hospitalization. There have been various, conflicting reports about her progress -- and whether she is conscious or remains on life support -- in recent months.
Leolah wrote that her brother will continue to pay whatever necessary to keep his child alive, while the family keeps praying for her recovery.
"If Pat knew The God that I know, instead of trying to inherit my niece's money for her personal gain, she would mind her own business and go find A JOB for herself without continuously working so hard to destroy my niece, beg her for money and get angry when she cannot get it! She would stop using the Houston name for her personal agenda," Leolah said.
Bobbi Kristina's maternal grandmother Cissy Houston said in March that there wasn't much hope for Bobbi Kristina and, although she is also praying for her granddaughter, she has placed the matter in God's hands and is prepared for whatever happens. In May, she reiterated Bobbi Kristina's recovery wasn't progressing.
