Washing machine is broken (leaking). Toilet is plugged. No caregiver showed up this morning due to a scheduling mix-up. Mom has diarrhea from the antibiotic. Repair man can't fix washer until tomorrow. Send help! When it rains it pours.

OH Robyn! I'm so sorry that you are dealing with all of this on top of all of that!

Have you tried HOT water into the toilet? Sometimes if you pour hot water, like a kitchen trash can full, down the hatch there, along with a bunch of plunging, it will help things move along.

Thinking of you and sending prayers up for the help requested!

((hugs))
