Clear storm damage from Gustavo's garden in Guadalajara
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Gustavo's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Guadalajara for 22 years. After the storm in October, 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

so sorry you're going through this. Hope the doctors have good news. Love from Saket.
Hope things get better soon. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Thinking of you and your family, Gustavo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too
Thanks for sharing this, Gustavo. Looking forward to the next update. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Guadalajara.
