News report just said he had a history of seizures, and he died after falling and hitting his head on a bathtub.
Maybe that was the nanny’s job. It looks like his mother might have been hurt a little bit.
What reports did you see? I have seen nothing to this effect.
Very sad.
Unhappy news.
My deepest sympathies to John and his wife and family.
Sad.
God, receive his soul.
so where is the difference with the 7th Day Adventists ( I think) who don’t allow transfusions..in terms of the legality where a court order can intervene to protect the child.
Have you tried the ketogenic diet? I know it works for some, but it seems like a lot of work.
My daughters seizures seem to be under control, but I know that things change with seizures.
It doesn’t matter. Any parent that loses a child is so bereft.
So sorry for his loss.
Oh dear heavens! So sad!
May he rest in peace.
Condolences to the family
My sincerest prayers and condolences to John and Kelly. One should never have to bury thier own child.
I’m going to say this again. Seizure-disorders can mimick autism. Also, 30% of those with autism have seizures.
Maybe he just had a seizure disorder.
Actually, even though you’re a noob and I shouldn’t respond, it should be noted that Kelly Preston maintained that one of the reasons for Jett’s illness was chemicals used in new carpet and household cleaners.
Prayers up for the family.
See ya!
However, you can be off of seizure medication for awhile, and then have one. Our neurologist said that lots of kids with seizure disorders are off of medication for years, and then during college have more because they stay up late, drink caffiene, diet sodas, etc. Those things can all lower seizure thresholds.
Lots of times the medications don’t work. Also, after 2 years of being seizure free, the docs will take people off of medication. Sometimes, they stay seizure free, and sometimes they don’t.
My daughter had a grand mal October of 2007, and was put on medication. We’re hoping she can get off the medication next October. The medication is very bad.
