John Travolt's Son Passed Away

John Travolt's Son Passed Away. Jed, the son, was poisoned by carpet cleaning chemicals when he was an infant. He's had health problems since. He was diagnosed with Kawasaki's syndrome, though the media tried to claim the boy had autism.

The mom, Kelly, is active in Children's Health Environmental Coalition and advocates for an all organic diet and no chemicals in the home. In fact, they ate an all organic diet and would not allow chemicals in the home. Jed had many allergies and sensitivities... i.e. MCS/EI since his poisoning.

The cause of death was a blow to head when Jed fell in the bathroom during a seizure while on vacation in the Bahamas. Very tragic.

Here we've all been looking for celebrities to support the MCS cause and they were right under our nose the whole time. The question is, do they want to go public with the knowledge of chemical toxicity that they have. Certainly this family could afford to issue press releases and do media conferences to bring the issue out in the wide open, like Jenny McCarthy has been doing for autism. Though the news is now claiming Kelly is out in the public with this, the truth is, many of us never knew about it, so she hasn't been as public as claimed. Perhaps this unfortunate loss will bring her to a public crusade to inform people how cleaning chemicals can damage human life.

Here's two more detailed story about Jed and Kelly:
