Whitney Houston’s Family Report Cause of Death: Drug Overdose

Please keep Whitney Houston’s family in deep prayer, it appears that they are afraid now that Bobbie Kristina may attempt to take her life.  Her dad, Bobbie Brown, left his concert tour with New Edition to be by her side and her Mom Cissy is preparing to bring her body back to Atlanta, Whitney’s last place of residence. Family sources reporting that Whitney did NOT die from a drowning or suicide it was an overdose of drugs mixed with alcohol.

Updte from TMZ

 Whitney Houston‘s family was told by L.A. County Coroner officials … the singer did not die from drowning, but rather from what appears to be a combination of Xanax and other prescription drugs  mixed with alcohol … this according to family sources.

We’re told Coroner’s officials informed the family there was not enough water in Whitney’s lungs to lead to the conclusion that she drowned.

Our sources say the family was told Whitney may well have died before her head became submerged.

And family sources tell us … it was actually Whitney’s aunt, Mary Jones, who discovered Whitney’s body in the bathtub. Mary had laid out Whitney’s dress for the evening on the bed and then left for about a half hour. When Whitney didn’t come out of the bathroom, Mary entered, pulled Whitney out of the tub and began administering CPR.

And we’re told … Whitney’s mom has arranged to have the singer’s body flown back to Atlanta, as early as tomorrow. The family was told the Coroner has no problem releasing the body because there is no evidence of foul play —  and unless cops put a hold on the body, it can be flown back East.

In the wake of the death of Whitney Houston, family members fear that her daughter, 18-year-old Bobbi Kristina Brown, might be suicidal and are considering getting her help … TMZ has learned.

As TMZ first reported, Bobbi Kristina was taken to the hospital once last night and again this morning. We’ve been told she was “hysterical, exhausted and inconsolable.”

Sources close to the family tell TMZ … the family believes she might try and take her own life. According to one source, the family feels Bobbi Kristina needs help and they are considering rehab as an option.

Bobbi got into it with cops last night after she was barred from seeing her mother’s body.  Her dad, Bobby Brown, who was on tour with New Edition left the tour to be at his daughter’s side.
