John Travolta Died

John Travolta's son died while they were vacationing in the Bahamas this past Friday. As you can imagine they are going through a tremendously sad time. Apparently Jett (their 16-year-old son) had seizures a lot and they believe he had one in the bathroom and fell and hit his head. John and others tried reviving him but it didn't work. It was announced this morning that they are currently doing an autopsy to determine the exact cause of death. The family will have a viewing for the community and then later this week there will be one down in Florida. My heart goes out to John and his family.

This is a statement they released today:

"We would like to extend our deepest and most heartfelt thanks to everyone who has sent their love and condolences. Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered. We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives. We have received many messages of condolence from around the world and we want to thank everyone for their prayers and support. It has meant so much to us. It is a beautiful reminder of the inherent goodness in the human spirit that gives us a hope for a brighter future."

With love,
John, Kelly and Ella
