Holy moly! that's a scary scene. I hope that you and your family will get good news soon. no worries about the updates. the safety of the fam is WAY more important. I wish we lived closer together, so I could send my brother and brother-in-law your way. they're good workers, and very experienced with jobs like this. especially my brother-in-law, cause the ranchhouse his family is in right now was build by my sister's grandfather way back yonder 100 years ago almost, and the damn place has a new leak every time they turn around. lol
Hoping you'll have good news for yourselves, and much safety soon!
