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

I'm 86 and I have lived in this house in Ciudad de México for 25 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 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you. Wishing Mateo a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings
