It is terribly sad......

What is even sadder is that as soon as I heard it, my mind thought ...."celebrity's child...must have been drug or alcohol related".....pretty bad on my part.....

Then when I saw the video of him and his parents.....I thought " Wow, I didn't know he had autism", becuase to me....I thought it looked obvious in that 5-10 seconds of video.

I had never heard anything of him being asd or any other disorder.....so I was just really surprised when I saw it. From what I read, his parents always said he had Kawasaki Syndrome.....I'm certainly not an expert at diagnosing....but I think he had a LOT of signs of autism.....like I said, as soon as I saw the video, it was the first thing that popped in my head....

It is very very sad for them....

I have been reading about this today and my heart just breaks for the Travolta family

NO Parent should have to ever bury a child

My Mom did for three of her children and I know she lost a part of her self each time.

So very sad, I can't imagine losing a child so young.

We'll keep the family in our prayers.
