It’s unclear if 22-year-old Bobbi is actually awake. A Brown family source tells PEOPLE that she has yet to wake up. “As far as I know, there’s been no change,” the source said. “We’re still hoping and praying that God will perform a miracle. We are leaving it in God’s hands.” Bobbi’s condition has been touch and go ever since [she was discovered in her bathtub](http://www.people.com/article/bobbi-kristina-brown-unconscious-tub-whitney-houston "undefined") in her Roswell, Georgia, home on Jan. 31. Bobbi was placed in a medically induced coma when she was first hospitalized. Attempts to [lift the coma](http://www.people.com/article/bobbi-kristina-medically-induced-coma-lifted "undefined") resulted in [violent seizures](http://www.people.com/article/bobbi-kristina-seizures-coma "undefined"). She has since been moved to a long-term care facility in Georgia. Brown has mostly remained by his daughter’s side shortly after she was discovered in her home. He has slowly been entering back into the public eye,[making his first public appearance](http://www.people.com/article/bobby-brown-first-appearance-bobbi-kristina-brown "undefined") on April 11 at the Soul Food Festival in Los Angeles. “I wanna thank all of y’all for coming out tonight, for supporting me and my family,” he told a crowd at the time. “Rough times are rough times. Hard times are hard times. I don’t know what the hell I’m going through right now, but I’m giving it to God.” _This_ [_article_](http://www.people.com/article/bobby-brown-bobbi-kristina-brown-awake-video "undefined") _was originally published at_ [_PEOPLE.com_](http://www.people.com "undefined") ### See Bobbi Kristina Brown and Her Family in Photos  Whitney Houston holds her daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown on June 15, 1993.
