particle board subfloor rotted under fridge

hello. i am a new member and have been reading this site and thanks for the great helpful advice/information from everyone.
my wife and i just bought our first mobile home on some land in Michigan. we love it so far except for the cost of propane there...
under the fridge there is floor rot from a leaking water valve that i fixed. i assume it leaked for some time from the previous owners and they didnt notice it. we have the dreaded particle board Novadeck as the subfloor. since i fixed this leak does anybody know if the soft spots/rot will continue to spread? i assume once the water is dry there will be no more spreading. i am not familiar with particle board and it is junky if you ask me...
thanks
