Bobby Brown’s Son Bobby Brown Jr. Dies at 28

Bobby Brown’s son Bobby Brown Jr. has died at the age of 28. His death came five years after the “Every Little Step” singer’s daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown died as a result of drowning and drug intoxication.

Bobby Jr., who was one of Bobby’s seven children, was found dead on Wednesday, November 18, at his home in Los Angeles, TMZ reported. The “My Prerogative” singer, 51, shares Bobby Jr. with Kim Ward, who he dated on and off for 11 years.

The aspiring musician was the half-brother of Bobbi Kristina, who Bobby shared with his ex-wife, late singer Whitney Houston.

The heartbreaking loss came nearly six years after Bobbi Kristina was found unresponsive in a bathtub in her Atlanta home in January 2015. The 22-year-old star remained in a medically induced coma and hospice care for six months until she passed away on July 25 of that year.

She was buried beside her late mother who died in February 2012 at the age of 48 of drowning due to coronary artery disease and cocaine intoxication.

Bobbi Kristina’s cause of death was revealed in March 2016, after an autopsy by the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s office.

“The cause of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s death as determined by the Fulton County Medical Examiner is: Lobar pneumonia,” the statement from the examiner’s office read. “Due to: Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, delayed effects. Due to: Immersion of face in water complicating mixed drug intoxication.”

Nearly three years after her death, Bobby exclusively told Us Weekly about his daughter’s talents and how he honors her memory.

“She was a beautiful young lady,” the musician told Us in February 2018. “And what she wanted to do with her life, I wish everybody could have seen. Music, entertainment. She was better than me. She was better than her mother.”

He added: “Her presence is always around me. That’s my baby. There is no way she could disappear from me.”

Earlier this year, Bobbi Kristina’s former boyfriend Nick Gordon died at the age of 30. Gordon suffered a series of heart attacks after being rushed to a Florida hospital amid New Year’s Eve celebrations, according to reports.

His attorney Joe Habachy confirmed his client’s death to Us in January in a statement.

“My heart is heavy today after learning that my longtime client Nick Gordon died at the young age of 30,” he said at the time. “While I cannot speak to the specific circumstances of his death, I can say that it’s been truly heartbreaking to have witnessed first-hand the total devastation that drug addiction has wreaked upon a group of young friends, all of whom were loved and had immense potential.”

Gordon was dating Bobbi Kristina at the time of her drowning and found “legally responsible” for her death in a civil case filed by her conservator. He was never criminally charged, but he was ordered to pay $36 million in damages.

Bobby’s rep had no comment to Us Weekly.

Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers

NewsColony Volunteers book hotel room for homeless man with SingapoRediscovers vouchers © The Independent Singapore Singapore — A group of volunteers from the Mummy Yummy Singapore welfare organisation donated their SingapoRediscovers Vouchers to book a hotel room for a homeless man. The man, who was identified as Jayden, did not have a place to live while waiting for the Housing Board (HDB) to allocate him a rental flat. In a Facebook post on Mummy Yummy Singapore’s page on Wednesday (Dec 16), the volunteers said: “We used our $100 Rediscover Singapore vouchers to redeem hotel stay for him and successfully booked 9 days worth of stay at 3 days per voucher.” They added that they were unable to book a longer stay because of higher hotel rates over Christmas and New Year. The volunteers hoped that they would be able to bridge Jayden’s stay until he got a flat. “Thanks our government for giving us these vouchers which in return we can put them to good use for people in need,” th...

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs

Disabled people are still vulnerable, even as COVID-19 normalizes their ‘special’ needs NewsColony Perhaps it’s appropriate that public notices of the COVID-19 crisis began as an ableist cruelty. Health officials assured the nation that only the elderly and those with chronic health conditions would be seriously affected; most Americans (i.e., the normal people) would have only mild symptoms and be fine. x A friendly reminder: people who will be high-risk patients if we get coronavirus can hear you when you reassure everyone we’re the only ones who might die. — Alexandra Brodsky (@azbrodsky) February 29, 2020 Soon after the announcement of those assurances, the likelihood of high-risk people surviving was further limited by the people more likely to be fine. Shopping frenzies cleared stores of essential supplies needed everyday by many disabled people, like thermometers, hand wipes, masks, and IV infusion supplies. Accustomed to their needs ...
