Jett Died of Seizure

0105travoltaautopsy.jpg

A funeral official has said that John Travolta's son Jett's death certificate lists "seizure" as the cause of death -- nothing about head injury related to a fall.

Glen Campbell, Assistant Director of the Bahamas funeral home handling arrangements, tells AP Jett's body showed no sign of head trauma. Police officials said earlier the 16-year-old may have hit his head on the bathtub.

Jett's body is now at the Grand Bahama airport en route to Florida for burial.

My heart goes out to the Travolta family what a gift and blessing that you were blessed with Jett as his parent. Their is so much love in your family, and that picture of Jett kissing his father head is more than a thousand word. My prayer is that God would be your strenght through this hard time and that you would know that God is the one who will carry you through all of the pain. God said that He will never leave or foresake us.

From my husband and I,our hearts go out to the Travolta family.
Neither one of us does not know what it’s like to lose a child but I know what it’s like to lose someone you loved and were close too, as most of us have. I lost my father when I was 22 yrs old he died unexpectedly at the age of 55 a massive heart attack due to diabetes.

Things do get better one day at a time, that is a promise :)

My thoughts are prayers are with the Travolta family during this very tragic time in their lives. Please let them have their privacy to grieve for the loss of Jett and remember that people in glass houses should not throw stones. The Travolta’s clearly love their children dearly and it is obvious they are good parents. My heart goes out to you John, Kelly and Ella!

To the Travolta family, there are no words that can express the loss of your dear son. The only thing that makes the blow easier to bear is to know that he loved and was loved by those closest to him. Blessings and Peace during this time.

My heart goes out to the Travolta Family- Kelly, John and Ella. Losing a child that was so adored by his family his truly devastating. I have been a nurse for over 30 years; and Extra’s Correspondent Carlos Diaz is absolutely right on Larry King Live tonight- it is not how Jett died, it is how he lived- and how much his family loved him that matters. The funeral arrangements should not be questioned; the autopsy is completed. Let’s stand with the Travolta Family during this tragedy and help them through this time of grief. May God Bless them…

John, Kelly, & Ella,
My deepest sympathies on the loss of Jett. I know your pain and grief as I, too, lost my daughter almost 3 years ago. My advice is to take “one day at a time” and if not “moment by moment”. I lived in Freeport in the 60’s and early 70’s and I went to Old Bahama Bay known as West End in my days. Take care of each other.
