Re: john travolta's son dies

[Guest guest]

I believe it was because their religion(Scientology) does not believe in

medical intervention & that if Jett studies the religion more he can be

cured that way.

Travolta, I believe, he was in denial as far as his son being Autistic.

That's what my husband and I were talking about earlier. You can tell he

has something going on. Why didn't they try to do something like

McCarthy and raise awareness. I'm not saying they were wrong or anything

like that.

Just wondering why is all. Famous people can help causes so much.

I feel so bad for them. I can't even imagine what they are going through.

Nobody here knows them. Their child died. For those of you that have

children that have seizures you know that accidents during a seizure

are nobody's fault and what happened to their child is anyone's worst

nightmare! I don't think we should either put celebrities on a

pedestal or feel just because we see them in a movie or read about

them in People magazine we have the right to judge them based on

public information. If they were judged in a court of law that would

be different and they are not. I wish I could express to them my

heartfelt sympathy. I have no idea the horror they are going through

right now -and thankfully very few of us ever will. I personally find

it a bit disgusting that during their morning they have to be under

any form of " attack " Shame on us as a society for feeling it so

necessary to diagnose every child with autism that we even have to go

after those that died 'supposedly' undiagnosed with autism! The child

had a diagnosis, Kawasaki. -but guess that's not good enough today.

" Allegations of autism " -when will everyone wake up to how crazy this

has become!

Travolta son to have autopsy amid autism allegations

" The couple's lawyer Marty Singer bluntly rejected the claims. " The

Travoltas are wonderful, loving parents, and their priority is their

children, " he said. " They have (taken) and they continue to take the

best possible care of their children. To suggest anything to the

contrary is very hurtful to a loving family and also would be false

and defamatory. " .

I also feel that it really doesn't matter whether the child had a

diagnosis or not. He died. He is their precious child. Who cares

about their denial or whatever. Even if he did have a different

diagnosis than Kawasaki, it doesn't matter. My nephew struggles with a

seizure disorder and he can luckily " feel " then coming on, but not

always. He has fallen many times. This boy, Jett, had a seizure and

fell. That could have happened with his parents in the room with him.

Sometimes there is nothing that could have been done to prevent such

things. I think we want there to be something that COULD have been

done, so that we don't have to face the fact that we escape these

tragedies by luck or fate or whatever you want to call it. It could

happen to any of us. Just try to treasure your own children and hope

that this family can somehow have the strength to go through the rest

of their lives without him. This is terrible.
