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

I'm 81 and I have lived in this house in Frankfurt for 47 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 poor eyesight.
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: 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.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Nakhon Ratchasima but we're thinking of you. Take care.
stay strong, Uwe. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Taguig

I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Cairo donated after I showed her your page.

hang in there, Uwe. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 25 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything
