The hope that Bobbi Kristina Brown would recover is fast diminishing. A source close to the family reportedly said that Whitney Houston’s daughter’s condition has worsened further and that she is barely hanging on.

A source close to the family shares to FOX411 that Bobbi is currently not faring well and the family is already preparing for the worst to happen. “She barely has any signs of life, hardly any vitals,” the insider said. “Security has been beefed up and even local law enforcement have been called because the families have been told that death is now imminent and they want to make sure that photographers don’t get pictures of her body being removed.”

The insider detailed that before she was taken to Chicago on a medical plane, the family went to see specialists that Typer Perry and Oprah Winfrey recommended. The source added that the specialists themselves dashed all the hopes of the family that Bobbi would still recover. The said Atlanta doctors have claimed that once she was taken off all the meds and artificial means of support, Bobbi would pass away. This said trip to Chicago is said to be Bobbi’s father, Bobby Brown’s way of showing that he had done everything to save his daughter. The source added that this is Bobby’s way to accept that he should let go already and take the meds off Bobbi so she can “go naturally.”

In relation to this news however is a brewing controversy. TMZ reports that Bobbi Kristina’s family is angry at reports claiming Oprah Winfrey and Tyler Perry were instrumental for brining Bobbi to a specialist in Chicago. TMZ said an insider shared that the family is angry because these reports of help make them look as if they need the help of celebs just to take care of Bobbi. The family is also angry because it is Pat Houston and neither Oprah nor Tyler who orchestrated the whole thing — bringing Bobbi to a specialist in Chicago, a visit which reportedly proved that there is nothing more that can be done for Bobbi and she should be allowed to die in peace.
