Clear storm damage from Henri's garden in Marseille
Henri, 75, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Marseille for 30 years. After the storm in July, 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 arthritis.
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: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Hope it all works out. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Birmingham
Keep going, Henri. Wishing Henri a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Keep going, Henri. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
