    Welcome to the "Community.FamilySearch" Forum.

    I am just another 'lowly' User/Patron ...

    You are not alone ...

    Many of us have been there ...

    Short Answer: Unfortunately, there is NOTHING that you can REALLY do about it.

    Except, WAIT and hope, that the Work DOES NOT get undertaken; and, the "Reservation" EXPIIRES.

    [ Where you can then "Reserve" such ... ]

    As, you have ALREADY done, as MUCH as You can.

    And, that is EVEN for IMMEDIATE Family.

    Here is a "Knowledge Article" in 'FamilySearch':

    Someone has reserved an ordinance that I want to do

    https://www.familysearch.org/en/help/helpcenter/article/someone-has-reserved-an-ordinance-that-i-would-like-to-do

    I certainly know that this does not help; but, I hope that this gives you some, insight; and, perspective.
