A day in the garden: help Yong-jun in Rochester

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Yong-jun's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

Rochester
I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Rochester for 26 years. After the storm in November, 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 heart condition. 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: 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 never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

      Take care, Yong-jun. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Nashik donated after I showed her your page.

            sending love. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Istanbul

              Hope things get better soon, Yong-jun. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Chattogram this morning.

                  Rooting for you, Yong-jun. This could happen to any of us. After 21 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
