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

I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Piraeus for 50 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 a heart condition.
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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

You're not alone, Manolis. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Makati.
Thinking of you, Manolis. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family, Manolis. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't give up. Thinking of Piraeus.
Good luck, Manolis. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Fort Worth
