“......It is believed Jett Travolta was autistic. Scientology does not believe autism exists, hence, he would not have been treated for it.”

There are hundreds of root causes for siezures, so Travolta could be 100% correct.

As I mention before my son has had four brain sugeries, the cause of his original siezures was a dysplasia, twice brain tissue was removed, the siezures continue. And they change characteristic over time, with different meds.

For all I know the original cause could have been removed and they continue due to the brain surgeries to correct the orignal problem. The brain is complex and just probing around can be harmful.

I know you all want a simple reason but even after an autopsy is conducted the EXACT cause may never be known - deal with it.

I’m 100% sure his family is.

That's why I said in my original post that the "possibility" exists that that Travolta's Scientology beliefs might have contributed to the death.

I didn't say there was a "simple reason."

The number of people here attacking Travolta with only minimal information is very disappointing.

With that being said, my brother-in-law's brother has a wonderful, beautiful and highly intelligent daughter who upon graduation from college, accepted a very good job in Chicago about a year and a half ago. Not long after working there she too started having seizures and has since had to quit her job and return here to Michigan to her parent's house.

My brother-in-law is a PHD psychologist and is familiar with such occurances but has been unable to get any information from his brother about the daughter's condition other than "she's doing ok". He/we are very concerned because the seizures continue despite assumed medical observation.

....and no, the brother and his family are not Scientologists.
