A day in the garden: help Humaira in Karachi
Humaira, 80, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇵🇰 Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan141 views
I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Karachi for 38 years. After the storm in April, 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.

Stay strong, Humaira. Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this, Humaira. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Coatzacoalcos but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I have a 15 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
