    Thanks everyone for all the advice! I really think we could fix it ourselves, but with little man's surgery, I am overwhelmed. We found a pool guy who used to work for the big pool store in our area, but now he does pools out of his home. He has agreed to come out and rehang the exsisting liner for us. It's the best solution for this situation. Again - thanks for all the info.

    Trimom, I can feel your anxiety. Our pool lost 1/2 of the water this winter and I found the reason this spring. Two holes happened last fall when my husband and son took out the steps. One the size of a nickle, the other a pea-both around 4 inches from the bottom. I tried to patch under water but the temp was very cold and it froze or dried up the glue before it would adhere. Next I drained down below the holes and patched. I let it dry 48 hrs before starting to refill. The water is up about 18 inches and everything is good so far. I hope the liner won't pull away. Denise--I also have a 20 yr old going in Monday for a toncillectomy. Fun week ahead.
