I forgot they were scientologists!. No doubt there will be a few that say the same BetsyOriginally Posted by GingersMom
I can't help but wonder whether or not the family ever treated his seizure disorder with medications or if they as Scientologists didn't believe in giving him medication to control it.

I just saw that, and I can't help but wonder whether or not the family ever treated his seizure disorder with medications or if they as Scientologists didn't believe in giving him medication to control it.
I absolutely love Travolta, have ever since his Welcome Back Kotter days, but again, can't help but wonder.
Poor Jett, may he rest in peace. What a terrible way to start off the new year.
I do not know all that much about Scientology and their beliefs about medicines but I do know that a large number of anti-seizure medicines are also classified as psychotropic drugs. Lamictal, for example, treats both bi-polar disorders and Epilepsy. Most of the drugs for bi-polar disorder were developed first to treat Epilepsy.Originally Posted by Skippymjp

What a terrible thing to happen, so sad for the family.
