The problem is, when my dad was alive he never got the roof insurance (something a lot of businesses in the city didn't get) because it didn't cover wind damage and the deductible was $10k. So when we had the second storm, the secondary damage got lumped into that, so we were screwed anyway.
The first guy didn't get the job because he screwed us over. This current guy was out immediately to patch us up and has been working all weekend and now to get the roof fixed and the internal damage fixed. "Luckily" there was also a burst pipe that they are going to use to help get a lot of the internal damage covered for us and hopefully put toward the roof. It's gonna still be well into the thousands.
EDIT: And thanks guys. Like I've said before. We're managing. My mom is incredibly strong and we're just plowing through. Just enough is enough!
