diarrhea.

Monica Marta anxious about her water when a relative showed her that her tap water could be ignited. The flame from the jug of water was this high, she said, indicating about half a meter, and that's what my kids and our family have been drinking.
Several said they first realized something was seriously wrong when Norma Fiorentino's water well blew up on New Year's Day 2009, throwing cement slabs into the air.

Like most of the other families who sued, they are now receiving drinking water deliveries from Cabot, as ordered by the state.

The fluid is injected at such high pressure that it cracks open pores in gas-containing shale, freeing small pockets of gas.
Even some Dimock residents who didn't own land or sign leases have been affected by the drilling. Landowners also had little choice, since land ownership often doesn't cover the resources below. Ron Carter said he and his wife were reluctant to sign until Cabot representatives explained that not doing so would mean only that they would be paid a lesser royalty.
