Connor having an eye jerk from OMS....


This video shows (about 11 seconds in) one of the earliest symptoms that appeared when our son Connor developed OMS caused by Neuroblastoma-eye jerks that looked like he was being shocked. Opsoclonus Myoclonus Syndrome is caused by a neuroblastoma, a cancerous tumor, or a virus. It is thought that antibodies in the immune system designed to fight off the tumor or virus end up attacking the brain as well. In Connor's case-these shock-like eye spasms were our first clue to his tumor.
