John Travolta 'mourning son for life'

John Travolta has said that mourning the loss of his son Jett will take him the rest of his life.

According to People, the actor admitted that his family are still healing over the tragedy.

"We are working hard on healing, still," the 56-year-old confessed at the Academy Awards' Governor's Ball. "It's going to be a lifelong project. Everybody has been so enormously supportive and I really appreciate it."

The 16-year-old died of a seizure in his family's Bahamas home last year.

Travolta's Wild Hogs co-star Tim Allen added that his friend is coping well. "He is doing really well, I mean, healing as best he can. He is pushing through a very tough situation."
