[MedicalConspiracies] Tests find sickened family has 50.3 ppm of Corexit’s 2-butoxyethanol in swimming pool

"Our heads are still swimming," stated Barbara Schebler of Homosassa, Florida,
who received word last Friday that test results on the water from her family's
swimming pool showed 50.3 ppm of 2-butoxyethanol, a marker for the dispersant
Corexit 9527A used to break up and sink BP's oil in the Gulf of Mexico.

The problems began for the Scheblers a few weeks after the April 20 blow-out.
"Our first clue were rashes we both got early in May. Both my husband and I
couldn't get rid of the rashes and had to get cream from our doctor," Schebler
noted, "I never had a rash in my life."

Then, on "July [23], my husband Warren mowed the lawn. It was hot so he got in
the pool to cool off afterward. That afternoon he had severe diarrhea and very
dark urine. This lasted about 2 days," she revealed.

Initially, they reasoned this was caused by the heat. The following week Mr.
Schebler again mowed the lawn and went in the pool, and again he was sickened
with the same severe symptoms.

Suspicious that the pool may be a problem, the family set out to get the water
tested. "We have a 15 year old and felt we owed it to him to live in a clean,
healthy environment," said Mrs. Schebler.

The Scheblers found Robert Naman, a Mobile, Alabama chemist who's performed
multiple tests (1, 2, 3) for WKRG Channel 5, also out of Mobile.

"Warren collected a water sample from the pool filter on August 17th. packed the
sample according to Mr. Naman's instructions, and overnighted it to his Mobile,
Ala. lab that same day," she noted.

The results were delivered by Naman over the phone on August 27 at 11:00 a.m.
EDT. A copy of the findings were then e-mailed to the Scheblers. To view the

"Naman [said] our pool water sample we sent him contained 50.3 ppm [parts per
million] 2-butoxyethanol marker for Corexit," according to Mrs. Schebler. Tests
for arsenic came back at less than .02 ppm.

A July letter from four top scientists noted, "Corexit 9527A contains 2-BTE
(2-butoxyethanol), a toxic solvent that ruptures red blood cells, causing
hemolysis (bleeding) and liver and kidney damage (Johanson and Bowman, 1991,
Nalco, 2010)," .
