 * I was updating a few pages and suddenly my site crashed. Now you just get a white
   page when I go to the website or when I try to login.

 * What were you updating? If you check your page, it’s returning error 500 which
   means “something” on your site is configured wrong or anything wrong basically.
   Try reverting your changes?

 * A 500 error is not a WordPress error. It’s a server error. You won’t be able 
   to login to WordPress until you correct the error.

 * I originally updated the theme, i got a notification saying there was an update
   for Adelle. Once I did that, I lost the header for my website so I tried to activate
   a new theme and that is when I lost everything.

 * Kindly delete the last theme you tried to activate from your theme folder(via
   FTP) and then try to browse admin section, default theme will be activated automatically.

 * I have changed my theme back to Adelle and the site is up. How do I fix the header?
   I have uploaded a custom header but it will not show up.
