John Travolta and Kelly Preston have been subjected to a great deal of criticism over speculation that their son Jett had autism rather than a rare disorder called Kawasaki Syndrome as the couple insisted.
Yet when Jett died today at age 16 after a seizure in a Bahamas hotel, Kawasaki began to look like a possible culprit.
Complications of Kawasaki Syndrome include coronary artery dilations and aneurysms. It is a leading cause of acquired heart disease in the United States.
And because blood vessel function can be affected throughout the body, children with Kawasaki Syndrome may be subject to seizures, according to Dr. Alan Greene, online pediatric expert for WebMD and author of an award-winning web site.
We have no idea whether or not Jett was autistic, but there certainly seems to be plenty of tragic evidence that he did suffer from Kawasaki Syndrome.
