Very sad news. My sympathies to the family. No one should have to bury a child.

A tragedy in deed. However, something sounds a bit reminiscent here.

[SIZE=+1]Excerpt of Die dunkle Seite von Scientology - According to the records, Heribert P. died august 28, 1988, during the night from a heavy epileptic attack. He hit his head on the night table. (...) The scientology doctor reports that he prescribed vitamins for his patient -dispite regular attacks- in stead of treating him with proper medication. Such medication was indeed not detected in his blood during the post-mortem examination. [/SIZE]


Regardless, my condolences to the Travolta family. The design is to not outlive your children. I could not begin to imagine what kind of anguish they must be suffering.

Amen. Had a family member (relative) have a seizure and fall and hit her head yesterday at our home... this is always our fear, so this story hits very close to home. Our thoughts are with John and his family, so very sad...

Troy, I hope your relative is OK. That had to have been frightening.
