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

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in San Diego for 20 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 arthritis.
The council has told me it will be ten 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hang in there. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 15 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
Sending good thoughts. Shared it with a few friends. Put this on a community board in São Paulo this morning.
