CVSA Member Linda Fox and son Bryan to make a film about CVS

In an effort to "get the word out" about the debilitating conditions of cyclic vomiting syndrome (also known as CVS) and abdominal migraine, CVSA member, Linda Fox and her son Bryan are making a short (2-3 minute) film to inform the public about these conditions. Linda is working in collaboration with CVSA. The film will be created by putting together video clips of CVS and abdominal migraine sufferers of all ages, as well as parents, spouses, and CVS medical advisors, talking about their experiences. The goal is to create a film collage that is both gripping and informative. The film will ultimately be posted on CVSA's web site, Facebook page. and on YouTube.We do NOT want any clips of adults or children during episodes.

We would like the film to be completed as soon as possible. Once we receive the video clips, we can begin the project of making the film.

The deadline for submission of video clips is May 1, 2012.
