A day in the garden: help Cooper in Miami

Cooper, 92, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

Miami
I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Miami for 49 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 poor eyesight. 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: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Glad we found this place.

      Thinking of you and your family, Cooper. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Miami.
