A day in the garden: help Vaibhav in Saket

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

Saket
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Saket for 31 years. After the storm in August, 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: 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. You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

      Hope it all works out. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 16 people at work!

      • Rooting for you. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

        • Rooting for you, Vaibhav. Your post was clear and honest.

                Hope things get better soon, Vaibhav. Hope you get there

                • Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Fresno.

                  • Take care, Vaibhav. This could happen to any of us.

                    • wishing Vaibhav a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.

                      • Hang in there, Vaibhav. I hope things turn around soon. Wish I lived closer to Eldoret so I could bring a meal.

                        • Thinking of you and your family, Vaibhav. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Saket.

                          • So sorry you're going through this, Vaibhav. This could happen to any of us.

                            • Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care

                              • Thanks for sharing this, Vaibhav. This could happen to any of us.

                                  hang in there, Vaibhav. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Edinburgh so I could bring a meal. Take care
