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

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Philadelphia for 49 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 a recent fall.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending strength, Rohit. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Thinking of Philadelphia
Rooting for you, Rohit. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Glasgow.
So sorry you're going through this. Get well soon. All the best!
Keep going. Wishing Rohit a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I hope January is when things finally get easier. Love from Montgomery
Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless.
Good luck, Rohit. This could happen to any of us. After 15 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Keep going, Rohit. Hope the doctors have good news. Greetings from Ikeja
