Collapsed ceiling after pipe burst in Texas home

This Texas home suffered water damage from a broken pipe after the freeze storm in Texas. The water damage was so severe that the ceiling collapsed because it got so saturated. There were other rooms affected in this home, but most of the affected areas already dried out and just needed repairs. In this room, we had to remove the ceiling and wet blown-in insulation to dry the studs. The walls also had to be removed two feet up from the floor because of wet insulation in the walls. As water travels down the walls, it gets stuck in the insulation at the bottom of the wall preventing the drywall and the studs from drying.
