8/18/2015 Caller lives on an island where many residents collect drinking water from rain on rooftops into cisterns. The county fogs and sprays to control mosquitoes. After this is done, caller can see a sheen on the surface of the water in his cistern. They have been spraying these products for his son's entire life. He has had a water sample sent for testing, but the results will take 3 months. At age (name), his son began developing cancerous tumors inside of his mouth which have been removed. His son is now (age), and has regular headaches, gynecomastia, eye problems, change in eye color in one eye 1 year ago, and learning disabilities. He began buying drinking water and now uses a water filter. Caller is wondering if contaminated water may be the cause of his son's illnesses.
