thanks for any help.

If it were me, I think I would open up the opposite side door and find out what needs to be moved to get the door open, then, on the trouble side, remove the little plastic trim around the inside door release and go in there with a coat hanger and attempt to snag the thing and pull. I have never tried it, but that's were I'd begin.
