loss of brake pressure, cant be good!

72 c10 1/2ton 350 v8.front disk.rear drums. was driving home last night. turned into my neighborhood. pushed on the brakes. pedal went almost to the floor. i pooped my pants! but the whole drive home, the pressure in the pedal was fine until i was almost home. any ideas of what it might be???? ever since i got the truck, 6months ago. the brake light has been on. my parking brake doesnt work, at least i dont think it does. the parking brake release jus moves freely and the parking brake pedal is up. my master cylinder is filled.

i would check for leaks at the back side of the M/C ,then check for the brake lines and then rear wheel cylinders for leaks.
