Riddle of John Travolta's son - could he have been saved?
Scientologists believe mental illness is psychosomatic, that people who suffer from it are defective human beings, and teach that it should be treated through spiritual healing. They reject the use of drugs to treat mental conditions.

Ερώτημα προς απάντηση: did Scientology block meds for Travolta's son ? (από newser)
Σύμφωνα με τις αρχές της Σαϊεντολογίας, η απάντηση είναι "ω ναι"...
Ξέχασες, μωρό μου και τη πολιτική αξιοποίησης του show-biz με κόστος, ίσως, τη ζωή ενός πάσχοντος παιδιού από σύνδρομο καβασάκι.
Αλλά τι λέω.
Αφού είναι δηλωμένο στο μανιφέστο τους ότι μπορούσαν να "μαρσάρουν" με δοξασίες και ύμνους στο όνομα του "great Ron" περισσότερο από την ίδια την ασθένεια.

John, 54, and Kelly, 46, have vehemently denied claims Jett had autism, but say he suffered from little-known Kawasaki Syndrome. They say he had a history of seizures which may have been caused by brain damage linked to Kawasaki. Some health experts say there is no link between Kawasaki and seizures, yet it is common for sufferers of autism to have fits if they go untreated. Autism is often associated with epilepsy and in the US nearly half of autistic children are prescribed anti-convulsion drugs.
The pal said of Travoltaʼs brother: “Joey loves his family but there were a lot of disagreements about Jettʼs treatment and what could be done. I can see Jettʼs parents now will be facing a lot of soul-searching.
“I think his mum must have known deep down in her heart. I was told she put him on a detoxification diet which can help autistic children, but there is so much more that could have been done.”
About a third of people with autism develop epilepsy with many suffering seizures which begin in adolescence.
There are dozens of drugs designed to help.
Jettʼs stated condition of Kawasaki is highly unlikely to have killed him or given him seizures, one expert said.
Sue Davidson from the UK Kawasaki Support Group said: “Iʼve dealt with 1,200 children over 14 years and not one has suffered seizures. Where Kawasaki Syndrome is fatal is in cases where it has not been diagnosed.”
Autism expert Sean Rhodes said: “If a child with autism is not diagnosed it can be very dangerous. To ignore the work done in the past 60 years means vital warning signs can be missed.”
In 2006, Hollywood reporter Mark Ebner claimed autism charities, a major movie producer and a top actor had all confirmed Jett was autistic.
Then, last year, one of Johnʼs neighbours claimed the star and his wife were not admitting their sonʼs condition.
Tim Kenning, who himself had an autistic daughter, said: “Scientology is keeping him from acknowledging his sonʼs autism. They see it as a weakness.”
The Travoltas were picketed by activists who demanded they go public about Jettʼs condition for the sake of other parents of autistic children.
But their lawyer at the time rejected the suggestion that Jett was autistic, saying: “The Travoltas are wonderful, loving parents, and their priority is their children.
“They have taken and continue to take the best possible care of their children. To suggest anything to the contrary is very hurtful to a loving family and also would be false and defamatory.”
John named his son Jett after his love of flying. The movie star, who has five private planes, once said while other kids had sleep-overs in their back gardens, his son could hold one in a Boeing 707.
John has practised Scientology for 24 years and is one of the controversial religionʼs best-known devotees.
Under rules set out by founder L. Ron Hubbard, mental illnesses and psychotherapy are not recognised.
Officers from the serious crimes section of the Grand Bahama Police Force are conducting the inquiry into Jettʼs death because of its high-profile nature. His parents are likely to be interviewed.
A police source said: “They will be questioned purely as a matter of routine. We appreciate they are devastated but we have to establish exactly what happened.”
John Travoltaʼs career spans 40 years and he is worth an estimated £200million. He is best known for Saturday Night Fever, Grease and Pulp Fiction.
