"Usher&amp;apos;s 11-year-old stepson, Kile Glover, died Saturday morning after he was taken off life support, TMZ reports. Doctors determined he would not recover from the injuries he suffered after a July 8 jet ski accident .\r\nAccording to TMZ, Glover&amp;apos;s mother, Usher&amp;apos;s ex-wife Tameka Foster, struggled greatly with the decision to take her son off life support.  On Friday, Foster tweeted a photo of son and made his smiling face her profile image.\r\n\r\nGlover was reportedly declared brain dead after he was struck in the head by a jet ski while riding an inner tube on Lake Lanier, in Atlanta, GA. According to ABC News, 38-year-old Jeffrey S. Hubbard, a friend of the family, was operating the jet ski at the time of the collision and is currently under investigation.\r\nFoster&amp;apos;s son was riding with an unidentified 15-year-old girl at the time of the accident. Both were airlifted to Children&amp;apos;s Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston, and Glover reportedly registered no brain activity. The second victim is said to have suffered a broken arm and cut on her head.\r\n\r\n\r\nAt the time of the accident, Usher (real name: Usher Terry Raymond IV), 33, and Foster, who divorced in 2009 after two years of marriage, were engaged in a heated custody battle over their sons Usher Raymond V, 4, and Naviyd, 3. However, the former couple put their differences aside to support each other during the very difficult time.\r\n&amp;quot;Tameka and Usher don&amp;apos;t get along, but in this circumstance Usher is coming to her side,&amp;quot; a source told Us. &amp;quot;Usher practically raised Kile as his own. He&amp;apos;s known him for seven years. It is so sad what happened.&amp;quot;\r\n\r\nAnother source recently told Us, &amp;quot;He grew close to Kile and, of course, that has nothing to do with the situation with Tameka. He loved Kile. This is a terrible, awful tragedy. Usher is torn up.&amp;quot;"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
