A day in the garden: help Vandana in Tiruchirappalli
Vandana, 78, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇮🇳 Tiruchirappalli, Tamil Nadu, India73 views
I'm 78 and I have lived in this house in Tiruchirappalli for 23 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 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: 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.

Hope things get better soon. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Greetings from Dayton
You're not alone, Vandana. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Aberdeen.
Hang in there, Vandana. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care!
