Clear storm damage from Elias's garden in Södertälje
Elias, 80, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Södertälje for 36 years. After the storm in January, 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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you for reading my story.

Hope it all works out. Hope you get there. Don't give up. Greetings from Arusha.
Take care, Elias. I hope things turn around soon. Sent it to 38 people at work.
Thinking of you, Elias. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
