A day in the garden: help Adrián in Corpus Christi
Garden rescue day in Corpus Christi: bring gloves and a rake.
🇺🇸 Corpus Christi, Texas, United States373 views
I'm 77 and I have lived in this house in Corpus Christi for 48 years. After the storm in February, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of arthritis.
The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Glad we found this place.

Stay strong, Adrián. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Corpus Christi.
looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Johannesburg.
You're not alone, Adrián. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 33 people at work. Take care

You're not alone, Adrián. Shared it with a few friends.
Best of luck. Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Southampton.
Sending love, Adrián. Hope the doctors have good news. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
