A day in the garden: help Yamuna in Madurai
Yamuna, 91, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇮🇳 Madurai, Tamil Nadu, India316 views
I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Madurai for 34 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 six 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Wishing you peace, Yamuna. Gave what I could, wish it was more
Hope things get better soon, Yamuna. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
