Travolta and Preston tragedy

Published by milyjohnson at 5:35 pm under Entertainment, Entertainment News Edit This

john-travolta-and-kelly-preston.jpgThe son of actors John Travolta and Kelly Preston died today.  He was 16 years old. Jett was vacationing with his parents.

According to TMZ, there have been reports that Jett was autistic, though Travolta has denied it, saying he suffers from Kawasaki Syndrome, a condition which often leads to heart disease.

Jett suffered a seizure at his family’s vacation home at the Old Bahama Bay Hotel on Grand Bahama Island. Attempts to revive him were unsuccessful and he died on scene.

Jett is survived by his parents, sister, as well as other relatives.

This is a horrible way to start out the new year.  My heart goes out to John Travolta, Kelly Preston and their family.  This is an awful thing for the family to go through.

    Yes this is bad.
    Kawasaki disease is a dreadful disease.

    I also heard Backstreet Boys’ Brian Littrell son has it.

    Hi Icy! That is a coincidence that we managed to do the same article. Great minds think alike. I’ll check your article out too. :)

    I haven’t really heard about Kawaski disease, dratiffarid. I didn’t realize that Brian’s son had that too. I knew he was sick, but I didn’t know that he had the same disease.
