I think I found it. My dad was a contractor so I&#8217;m not afraid to open a wall. The drywall is missing in the pic since it was water damaged and literally crumbling in my hand. While I replaced the shower head last April, which stopped that leak, apparently there was a lower leak I did not know about. In a little while I&#8217;ll turn on the shower and see what there is to see. A piece of wood that was behind the shower controls was very water damaged and lifted right out. From the water stains on the two by fours it looks like there&#8217;s some kind of leak right behind the shower control. The master bath came with a shower only and I installed the tub in 1987 so I may just take this oversized tub out, I rarely use it anyway.\u00a0 I posted this on Facebook and the world famous Bernie siegel asked, &#8220;Why is this a subject for FB?&#8221; Because it&#8217;s my life and I share whatever is happening with me. He periodically gives me a little heck for some of my posts. If I put something out there for the world to see, I can&#8217;t dictate how someone will respond. I feel honored he&#8217;d even glance at my posts when they come across the newsfeed, much less comment &#8212; even if it&#8217;s a snarky comment.<\/p>\n<div id=\"s-share-buttons\" class=\"horizontal-w-c-circular s-share-w-c\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-torn-out-shower-wall-and-dr-bernie-siegel\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to Facebook\" class=\"s3-facebook hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=My torn out shower wall and Dr. Bernie Siegel&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-torn-out-shower-wall-and-dr-bernie-siegel\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Twitter\" class=\"s3-twitter hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/plus.google.com\/share?url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-torn-out-shower-wall-and-dr-bernie-siegel\/\" target=\"_blank\"  title=\"Share to Google Plus\" class=\"s3-google-plus hint--top\"><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-torn-out-shower-wall-and-dr-bernie-siegel\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Share to LinkedIn\" class=\"s3-linkedin hint--top\"><\/a><div class=\"pinit-btn-div\"><a href=\"\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/\" data-pin-do=\"buttonBookmark\"  data-pin-color=\"red\" title=\"Share to Pinterest\" class=\"s3-pinterest hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" async defer src=\"\/\/assets.pinterest.com\/js\/pinit.js\"><\/script><a href=\"mailto:?Subject=My%20torn%20out%20shower%20wall%20and%20Dr.%20Bernie%20Siegel&Body=Here%20is%20the%20link%20to%20the%20article:%20https:\/\/horizonsmagazine.com\/blog\/my-torn-out-shower-wall-and-dr-bernie-siegel\/\" title=\"Email this article\" class=\"s3-email hint--top\"><\/a><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wondered what might be causing the water to leak underneath my wall into the dining room and since the shower I fixed myself 12 months ago was on the other side of the wall, I thought I&#8217;d pull out some kinda loose tiles and see what might be the culprit.
