Shayne Jennison makes movie
A couple of years ago the Botetourt community was introduced to a young man named Shayne Jennison (see our posts here and here). He is a budding film maker. Here is an update on his life.
Shayne has a rare disorder called POTS. The acronym stands for an ominous sounding “Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome.” It keeps him from going to Lord Botetourt like other teens, so he is a home bound student. He is active making films when he feels well. While Shayne is still in the battle against the disease, he is making the best of a bad situation.
Recently he produced this funny interview of his Mom, Patricia, who is a great sport! Taken totally out of context, he produced a Q and A with her. So far, he has 40,000 hits on the YouTube video. It is on his production site, Slappy Cider. Enjoy!




Hey Shanye,
This is great! If you are looking for another film project idea, we could really use a funny, but informative, video about life with POTS. Please contact us at info@dysautonomiainternational.org. We would love to speak with you about this. And check out our new website: http://www.dysautonomiainternational.org.
Keep up the good work!
