4. This is absolutely a "penny-wise, pound-foolish" scenario because you're now running not only into more service costs but the very real potential of health issues.

Call a professional and spend the money to get that stove working properly and safely

OR

Shut it down and figure out a way to pay the few extra dollars (since there's already a cost involved).

It may be time to seek out a part-time job or heating assistance, but something has to change.

You do realize she is a senior citizen? She is also living with disabilities.
