A question for someone who really knows about bathroom tiles!! Help please!!?

OK- here's the deal. We just bought a house and we are on tight funds so we are trying to repair the bathroom for now and in 5 years completely redo it. The bathroom is from 1955 and has never been updated and was not taken care off. The tiles in the one corner of the tub had fall out completely. Problem in that part fo the wall has actually missing as well!! So I am trying to glue this tile back in but I don't have any wall to attach it to. It's a straight drop when I look down so theres nothing for me to stick attach a new piece of dry wall to! I just want to patch this whole for now and not have to rip out the whole wall. We know we have to do it eventually but does anyone have a patch idea for me to give me sometime to save money up? We need to rip out all the tile eventually and replace everything! The wall behind the hole is the basically cement because are house is brick. It's only 1 tile high and about 10 of them in a row fell off. The hole that has no back wall to

OK do this , First get a can of spray insulation, spray it into the hole to seal the bottom part of it . Then take some old rag's or packing and shove it into the hole and make sure it is kind of tight yet loose enough to be able to put a piece of screen in front of it but not too loose for it will push in when you go to scrub the wall's.Then take your plaster and put it on the screening and build it up in thin coats to the level that you need to reattach your tile . do your grout and seal it so no water gets to the surface behind it, This should last until you are ready to do your remodeling. hope this helps you out for it's the easiest and cheapest way to do this for concrete walls with out a major tear out. It may sound odd but it does work .

Cheap, quick, TEMPORARY fix:

Get a sheet of plastic tub surround and put that up over the tiles that are still there. Be sure to caulk all edges, you don't want any steam or water getting behind it.

This is a temporary fix only. It will not last very long (maybe a month) and it will be ugly as sin. But you'll have a useable tub for the time being.

If you have a second bathroom in the house, it would be best not to use this one at all until you get the wall fixed correctly and re-tiled.

use a board or some other type of material and attach it to the back of the good tile so the new tile can be attached to the material that you placed there and seal it with silicone
