A day in the garden: help Padam in Kathmandu
Padam, 71, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇳🇵 Kathmandu, Bagmati, Nepal605 views
I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Kathmandu for 47 years. After the storm in February, 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 my hip replacement.
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.
Glad we found this place.

take care. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Gdańsk so I could bring a meal. God bless
Wishing you the best, Padam. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Sent it to 28 people at work. Greetings from Campinas
Wishing you the best, Padam. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest.
Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Mangaluru but we're thinking of you
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Kathmandu.
