Spongy brakes and loosing brake fluid

What is your question?

I have a 1993 Ford Taurus. 3.0 V6 engine. In 2008 I drove it from Northern Maine to Norfolk, Virginia (997 miles). For the year I was in Norfolk I had no troubles with the car. A month before I was supposed to return to Maine my machanic gave it a clean bill of health. He checked all the fluids. I chose not to drive it back to Maine so I parked it at my sister's for 10 months. It was not driven during that time. It was started only twice. Last week it was driven out of the garage. The brake pads made a screetching sound. Then the brakes failed all together, they are spongy all the way to the floor. Break light stays on. I thought it needed brake fluid so I put some in. Car was started and ran a few minutes. I noticed brake fluid spewing out the bottom of the engine and spraying toward the inside of the left front tire. Even with this spewing of fluid, the fluid level in the plastic container did not go down. (As if the fluid was not making it to the brake system.) Please advise as to what to do now
