The video opens with a quote from Bobbi Kristina herself. "I hope you feel my love, pain, beauty, agony at times, blessings all the time. No one understands me. And I don't expect them to, but I will try to spread my love and my story through words and this blessing of a powerful voice mom has given me," it reads. It ends with another heartbreaking message which reads, "Goodbye for now."
Bobbi Kristina died on July 26 at 22 years old after months in a medically induced coma following a bathtub incident. She was found facedown and unresponsive in her bathtub in her Georgia home on January 31. She was laid to rest next to her mother Whitney on August 3.
Bobbi Kristina's boyfriend Nick Gordon was banned from attending her funeral. He's currently facing a lawsuit filed by her co-conservator Bedelia Hargrove who accused him of causing the "wrongful death" of Bobbi. Bedelia claimed in the amended complaint that Nick gave Bobbi "toxic cocktail" which rendered her unconscious, then put her face down in a tub of cold water.
