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.

Thank you for your video. Do not listen to that NotQuite person. If they don't like your video, then they don't have to watch it. This is YouTube for crying out loud.

Um, who's diagnosing their child? Not me.. I showed my video to my child's doctor (before I saw this video) and she does have neurological problems going on.. And.. I think its great that parents post videos like this.. because its so innocent looking that most parents would miss it.. No disclaimer necessary..

This video is just going to make people paranoid about their child's health. I suggest you take it down or at least add a disclaimer telling people not to start diagnosing their children.

My daughter does this. At least it looks to me very similar.. would you mind looking at my video and telling me whether I should be worried?? Thanks.
