After about 3 hours of wet-vacing and 5 emptyings of the container, I'm done. Literally. Done. I cannot stand up straight. My right leg won't lift my foot any higher than about an inch or 2 off the ground.

I set up a high-velocity fan to blow across the floor down stairs. That's the best I can do.

Digging for the bright side:
  • Now I know where the water is coming from, and it's NOT the upstairs shower as we thought.
  • Not everyone owns a big wet-vac. I do!
  • My MS is such that I will (should) recover enough by tomorrow to go shopping with a friend. I'll probably use my cane, which I rarely do anymore, but at least I'll still be able to get out and do something.
Early to bed tonight!

Thanks everyone, for your well-wishes!
