A day in the garden: help Brenda in Los Angeles
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Brenda's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Los Angeles for 25 years. After the storm in June, 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 eight 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope you get there. Thinking of Los Angeles!
Hope it all works out, Brenda. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Jalandhar
