I had to remove a 50 ft pine tree that my daughter and I planted more than 30 years ago. That tree meant a lot to us but it was showing severe signs of dying after I had a large and dangerous branch removed that was threatening our house. I was warned that removing the branch might damage the tree but it was a chance I had to take. We planted the tree when it was a very small sapling that she got from school during the Christmas season when she was 9 years old.
My advice would be to have a reputable arborist come and assess your situation. You will pay a fee but it will be worth it in the long run to get the arborist’s professional opinion.
