I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Toledo for 37 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 heart condition.
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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 16 people at work. Blessings.
Keep going, Yusuf. Hope this works out for you. All the best!
wishing you the best, Yusuf. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Chattogram this morning. Thinking of Toledo!
I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Multan
Thinking of you, Yusuf. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Negombo.
