A day in the garden: help Mohammad in Salem
Mohammad, 73, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Salem for 39 years. After the storm in July, 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 twelve 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless
Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Iztapalapa this morning. All the best.
Hang in there, Mohammad. I hope things turn around soon.
Keep going, Mohammad. Hope this works out for you. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
Best of luck, Mohammad. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
