Travoltas still dealing with son's death


It's been about 5 months since John Travolta and Kelly Preston's son Jett died of a seizure which caused him to slam the back of his head against a bathtub, and while they're still struggling to cope with it, a friend says that they're "moving forward, not moving on."

They've both had weak moments and strong moments, but they have found it inside themselves to be strong for the other person. They're the weakest when they're alone. [John's] so sensitive and loving. When this happened, he didn't know what to do with himself. [Kelly is] a lot better now. She sounds rested, like she has turned a corner. There is moving forward, but there is never moving on. Moving on means that they are cutting their losses and forgetting about it, but that's not what they're doing. They're picking up the pieces and moving forward.

It's really good to hear that they're doing somewhat better. I can't imagine what it's like to have to go through that, and hope I never have to find out, and neither do any of you.
