This story just keeps getting sadder and sadder.
As everyone knows by now, John Travolta's 16-year-old son Jett has died and more details about the tragedy keep getting revealed every day.
Now Travolta's lawyers Michael McDermott and Michael Ossi (who are also close family friends) gave a joint phone interview to Us Weekly about the sad situation:
- A Grieving Family
"Yesterday was the worst day of his [John's] life... John is distraught. He is trying to understand and reconcile this. He is seeking an explanation so that this makes sense to him. And his loved ones are trying to provide that to him."
"Generally a son buries his father, and John thought that would be the way it would go with Jett, not the other way around. This is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to him and he needs to go through a process of healing. John and Kelly are suffering total misery."
- Breaking The News To Sister Ella
"John broke the news to Ella. She is heartbroken. She is in disbelief, but it is starting to sink in. She has been asking where her brother is. She was so close to Jett. The whole family were so close. They went everywhere together. If John made a movie, they were all there with him."
- Did Jett Die In John's Arms?
"Jett may have still been alive when John administered CPR, and then the EMT took over. Jett was pronounced dead at the hospital. I like to believe John had a chance to say goodbye. He may have died in his dad's arms. I am not certain."
"He was a wonderful boy. He had physical limitations, but when he looked in his dad's eyes, the love was tangible. When he grabbed onto his dad, he did not want to let him go."
