Details emerge on Jett Travolta's death
John Travolta, Kelly Preston and their children Jett and Ella Bleu, leave an airport in Rome.
John Travolta's lawyers -- who are close family friends -- reveal that Jett may have died in his father's arms Friday.
Us: How is John doing?
-snip- "John and Kelly are suffering total misery. They were so close to their son. This is hard to accept.
-snip-
Us: Have John and Kelly spent time with anyone since everyone arrived?
Ossi and McDermott: "John and Kelly have been pretty much locked away.
"We are staying here until John leaves. The autopsy should be on Monday.
-snip-
Us: It's been reported that Jett was left alone for several hours before being discovered. Can you clarify the timeline?
Ossi and McDermott: "Jett was not left alone. He had a nanny present at all times. The nanny was sleeping close to Jett's room. There was a baby monitor, a chime on the door so it was known when Jett was going in and out. He was completely supervised. The nanny found him.
Us: Is it true that Jett died in John's arms?
Ossi and McDermott: "Jett may have still been alive when John administered CPR, and then the EMT took over. Jett was pronounced dead at the hospital. I like to believe John had a chance to say goodbye. He may have died in his dad's arms. I am not certain."
Us: It's been said Jett had a history of seizures. How often did he have them?
Ossi and McDermott: "I am not confident to talk about that. I know he had a history, which of course warranted the extra attention."

You must have me confused with your nanny.
You can rest assured that if the police are right about the timeline...Travoltas will be living a hell on earth with guilt...that is if Scientology allows it.
- McDermott told us it’s not unusual for Jett to sleep 12, even 16 hours a day, so Jett not being present is not unusual.
- We’re now told the grand mal seizures Jett suffered were “frequent and extremely serious.” Travolta’s lawyers, Michael Ossi and Michael McDermott, tell us “each seizure was like a death,” with Jett losing consciousness and convulsing.
I'd want a professional caregiver around, probably 3, working in shifts. jmo
I have a working theory. One caregiver was off. One was on. The one that was on was out of the room..somewhere..doing something......................
and there was an accident.
That is, if the timeline from the police is correct.
Nope, just thought you replied to a different post. Silly me, I should have realized it was just another of your non answer posts.
You claimed you addressed the issue up thread about the two nannies. he was asking for the post number.
I suspect the family is already going through their own personal hell, and that includes the so called nanny. I said prayers for all involved when this story broke. Very sad. It will be interesting to see if any real details come out. Time of death vs time he was found for starters.
I never said Sharia Law isn’t evil. I never said I like Scientology. You are putting words in my mouth. What I DO think is if you want a thread of how horrible Scientology is then go to the religion section and start a thread on it there.
So now you're his nanny?
Boy you are spot on about that the sleeping patterns that is.
KV can be up and awake when out and about for 20 plus hours and then sleeps two days straight and I tend to do the same as him so we can stay on the same schedule.
Except now I am taking a 24 hour respite and have a hot rock massage and spa day planned so as per usual I cant sleep the night prior to respite time. Uhg.
He is awake too cant wait to hang out with his respite careprovider.
She is a natural when it comes to interacting with him what a gem and I come home with everything up to par so it is not 2 days of playing catch up on everything.
And she loves the 3 Labs.
Not all disabilities require the same level of careproviding and most parents I know are very selective on who they leave in their disabled childs care when they are taking a much needed break.
So what if Travolta hired a wedding photographer it worked for their family dynamics and perhaps Jett related well with his careprovider and that repor does not alway come with a nursing license behind it.
Some of worst employees have been licensed RNs I have even had ones come in look at my son and walk out.
SO yeah you hit the nail on the head.
You said you believe that people who worship a faith should be allowed to worship it as they see fit and no one should say anything. That includes Sharia Law.
Here is the reality of this situation that you want to gloss over.
Scientology plays a big role in this investigation. There is something called criminal neglect. You want to see a one statute and it is from New Hampshire:
(f) “Neglect’’ means the failure or omission on the part of the caregiver to provide the care, supervision, and services which he or she has voluntarily, or by contract, or by order of the court agreed to provide and which are necessary to maintain the health of an elderly, disabled, or impaired adult, including, but not limited to, food, clothing, medicine, shelter, supervision, and medical services, that a prudent person would consider necessary for the well-being of an elderly, disabled, or impaired adult. “Neglect’’ may be repeated conduct or a single incident.
So, let’s assume that the Travoltas really did see a neurologist and it isn’t just Scientology spin by their handlers.
A competent neurologist probably would have told them that this boy needed round the clock care. It is laughable to actually believe Kelly’s claim that the Kawasaki sydrome would have created the need for the drastic measures they put in place.
But go ahead and assume it. The reality is that he needed that care.
Now what if the police timeline is correct?
What if the boy could have been saved if he had received prompt medical care?
Yet, you think no one should question the circumstances.
Did you prance about on the Anna Nicole Smith threads and lecture about leaving her alone and letting her grieve when he son died in the Bahamas in mysterious circumstances?
Did you lecture people who were interested in the details of her own death to see if something went on there.
And what if Scientology created a situation whereby this boy died because of neglect. The caregiver is reported to be a Scientologist. Which would make sense given the control that Scientology wants over it’s members.
You can prance around all you want and call me names...but the reality is...this boy’s live and death should come under close scrutiny...and you can bet that the Scientologists heirarchy are getting their spin doctors in place.
Hah isnt that the truth.
My son had a psuedeo bowel block and after giving his gut a rest TPN line and all the GI tests to rule out everything his GI doc wrote orders for him to recieve a mollases and milk enema.
Then told me the Pharma companies cant put a patent on either ing. and it works better than anything else on the market cheap to.
So when he starts to distend now I go on the chicken broth/juice diet and if that does not simmer things done uhg the mollasses and milk intervention. Needless to say I pray for divine intervention before having to go to step 3.
Also his care needs may not have required a licensed proffesional.
He may have just needed an attendant to supervise his daily activities.
To have a live in careprovider that person has to really meld in well with the whole family.
I knew a little guy who was indeed severly autistic (not saying Jett was) and he could flee the scene in a blink of an eye.
I told his mom who clearly had the funds I would put locks on the kitchen cabinets and keep a key on my pants as he loved to dump the sugar/flour ect out on the floor as quick as his mom would turn her back.
They also live on the corner of a major hwy and he would go wander out onto the highway.
I though putting up a chain link fence that enclosed with a roof around the play area so he could play safely outside but well not my choice.
Being innovative is something I enjoy about being a careprovider.
If you can reduce daily living stress and have more free time for quality family time together than it makes the tough days less challenging.
For all we know and we dont the fellow helping out in Jetts care was just a third set of hands for all we know John was the primary careprovider but having a wife and daughter it would be very wise to have another set of hands and if John got along well with the fellow as well as Jett and his duties were clear than good for them.
There was a little gal with CP quad who her folks loaded her up in the van to go to church they went back into the house to lock up ect...and returned to see a plastic bag had blown into the van and suffocated their child. How rare is that?
But it sure made an impression on me never leave plastic bags in the van. Learn from anothers tragedy.
Accidents do happen and in this blame blame PC world seems no one can accept that.
CNN just had some pics of Jett up and he was a handsome lad.
Ocala couple recalls love between Travolta and son
OCALA — Among local people who have rubbed elbows with John Travolta and Kelly Preston, Bonnie and Ken Morehardt enjoy a unique vantage point from which to view the Hollywood megastars and their family.
The Morehardts, retired airline pilots who own the 7 Sisters Inn, frequently cater parties and get-togethers at the Travoltas’ home in Jumbolair, just north of Ocala, and on several occasions have accompanied the family on long flights in John’s plane.
The Travoltas and Morehardts share a love of flying, which brought them together, and a love of food, which brought them closer.
Bonnie said John took an interest in her unique dishes, marveling at how she combined seemingly incongruent spices and ingredients into tasty treats that he and his house guests devoured appreciatively.
But in the midst of serving tomato tarts and chicken pistachio, Bonnie often stole glances at John and Kelly doting on son, Jett, and daughter, Ella Bleu.
She was struck, she said, by the lengths to which the couple went to carve out time for the children during their hectic schedules.
“As one of their gatherings was winding down, I looked down the hallway to where the bedrooms are,” Bonnie said. “And there’s a sitting room there, and they were all sitting and talking. Every now and then, you’d hear laughter.

John Travolta’s brother Joey thought Jett had autism
Joeytravolta According to the London Mirror, there have been many Travolta family arguments caused by Jett Travolta’s illness.
The source, a close friend of John’s brother, Joey Travolta, told the Mirror that Joey and John often argued about what was wrong with John’s son Jett.
John didn’t believe his condition was autism, a condition not recognized by Scientology. Brother Joey believed Jett suffered from autism.
Ironically, John’s brother Joey had learned a lot about the disorder when he interviewed 65 autistic youngsters for a documentary called “Normal People Scare Me.” He even co-wrote the theme song, “Locked Inside of Me.”

Annual APA Convention Protest Celebrities were out in force to speak out against coercive psychiatric drugging of children at the annual American Psychiatric convention, held in San Francisco. Actresses Kelly Preston, Kirstie Alley, Jennifer Aspen and Lynsey Bartilson and eight hundred marchers protested psychiatry’s use of teachers to identify children as “mentally disordered” and forcing parents to drug them as a requisite for educational services. The protest attracted nationwide media attention.

I can’t be a lack of time here. It must be insanity on my part, I just keep hoping for a more tempered response to the misfortune of others, even when we deeply disagree with their beliefs.
On the other hand, it is as important for those haters to remain free to spew as it is for those who’s lifestyle I disagree with to live theirs.
