Bottom Bracket Problem

Hi everyone. I just got back from a CA to FL coast to coast tour (which was awesome) on my Trek 540. Around Destin,FL, my bottom bracket totally went out. I managed to limp the bike over to a bike shop to get it repaired and basically the internal threads went out (completely mashed and mangled). The mechanic at the shop managed to clean out the threads and put in a square style bracket, but its only hanging on by 3 1/4 threads. Any ideas on how long this bottom bracket is gonna last? Is there anyway to repair the damage to my frame or find a work around solution?


Thanks!
