Doctors say that nothing can be done...she is gone...yet he refuses to remove life support.

Sounds like the case of the brain dead girl in CA. Bobbi Kristina has 10 million dollars. Should that money go to keeping her on life support?

Yeah or nay?

I would never judge his reasons.

This is every parent's worst nightmare.

[Say Nay]

I can't say what he should do. Saying goodbye to your child… I can't imagine the pain.

Shouldn't that be up to him? We don't get to arrange a time table for him imho.

Not something to ""vote"" on for a message board. Crass.

It hasn't even been a week. He seems to be dealing with a lot.

Give the guy a break. I'm sure he'll come to grips with the situation soon.

I am sure he will do the right thing for Bobbie..my heart goes out to the family.

[Suziepeach]

The family still has hope. I really can't say one way or the other.

Whatever he is thinking or feeling I suspect he will wait until the 11th to do anything.

My uncle died at 68 of a stroke (he had previously had brain surgery and was in poor health).

The hospital kept him on life support for 3 extra days so his siblings could fly in to say goodbye. He was brain dead.

The bill to Medicare was astronomical.

Afterwards, his wife said she NEVER would do that again...she wished she had turned off the machines earlier.

This happens frequently and is one of the reasons our healthcare costs are out of sight.

Don't we need to learn to accept death???
