A day in the garden: help Rina in Khulna
Rina, 80, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Khulna for 40 years. After the storm in September, 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 ten weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.

You're not alone, Rina. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
Wishing you peace, Rina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Rina. Your post was clear and honest.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Sent it to 34 people at work. Greetings from London.
Shared it with a few friends. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Khulna.
Hope it all works out, Rina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings.
Keep going, Rina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Sandton.
sending good thoughts. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

So sorry you're going through this, Rina. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Catania donated after I showed her your page. All the best
keep going. Looking forward to the next update. After 23 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care
Best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. I'll check back for the next update. Love from San Antonio
