A day in the garden: help Alberto in Salerno
Alberto, 80, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Salerno for 27 years. After the storm in August, 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 a recent fall.
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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We're a small family in Kazan but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Salerno.
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Rajkot.
stay strong. Looking forward to the next update. Don't give up. Greetings from Jakarta Barat.
Thinking of you and your family, Alberto. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.

Take care, Alberto. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Cebu City donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
Shared it with a few friends. After 23 years in logistics I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
