Citing sources, TMZ reported that Tameka Raymond can only keep her son, 11, on life-support as long as her insurance company agrees to pay, otherwise she doesn't have the funds to cover the enormous hospital bills.

He has been on life support since a July 6 accident that also injured a female friend, 15. A family friend reportedly ran into the two youths with a jet ski at Lake Lanier, while the youngsters were in an inner tube being pulled by a pontoon boat.
