Family returns from vacation to find home flooded, frozen

With the water shut off the furnace auto feed won't work and it will quit running when it gets low on water. I will leave the heat on (and water) when we go away. There is a small brook in the basement when it rains hard so I am sure the water will find it's way out. If the heat is off to long the doors don't shut good, the drawers get stuck and the tables worp.
