A day in the garden: help Owen in Montgomery

Garden rescue day in Montgomery: bring gloves and a rake.

Montgomery
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Montgomery for 45 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 recent fall. 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. 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.

    Stay strong, Owen. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 4 people at work. Take care.

    • Logan J. Weber

      So sorry you're going through this, Owen. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.

      • Rey C. Perez

        Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like!

        • Lukman Zulkifli Surya

          Keep going, Owen. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 19 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything.

          • Nina Andrea Albrecht

            take care. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Riverside

              Best of luck. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't give up.

                Rooting for you. Get well soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
