John Travolta
Photo:Getty ImagesSeven years ago, John Travolta lost his son. 16-year-old Jett suffered from Kawasaki syndrome (an acute febrile disease affecting blood vessels) and died of an epileptic seizure in the bathtub during a family vacation in the Bahamas. The actor was terribly upset by the death of his eldest child (he loved him very much and even named his plane after Jett), and temporarily stopped acting. But he found the strength to return to the profession. And in November 2010, John and his wife Kelly had a son, Benjamin. But the actor never forgets about Jett. Recently, he posted a touching post about his deceased son on social networks. “They say the hardest thing is to lose a parent. I can assure you that this is not true. The hardest thing in this world is to lose a child. Someone you raised, someone you watched over, someone you loved every day. My son was everything to me. In the 16 years that we were together, he taught me unconditional love. Life is short. Kids, spend time with your parents. Parents, spend time with your kids. Because one day when you look out from behind your phones, they may not be there. What I have truly learned is to live and love like it is my last day," John wrote.
