I hope that he uses his celebrity to get the Bahamian government to clear his son's body to leave. My brother died on Nov 29th in the Bahamas and our family still doesn't know the cause of death as the autopsy isn't complete. That country is backwards.

My heart goes out to this family over the loss of their son and brother, Jett. This son was loved by his parents and sister and I can only imagine the grief that they are experiencing. May God provide you with comfort and support. I am so sorry for your loss.

He had a million mile stare in his eyes. Was there something wrong with Jett Travolta, other than the Kavasaki disease?

Trust in the Lord during the loss of your son, he will see you through. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers as we know the 1st hand experiences of having a special needs child. We can only hope that the cure comes sooner than later to give every child affected by Autism their opportunity to blossom. May God Bless!
