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

I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in São Paulo for 39 years. After the storm in May, 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 six 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

wishing you the best, Lorena. Hope this works out for you.
rooting for you, Lorena. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together
wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Lagos
sending love. Your post was clear and honest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of São Paulo.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Jabalpur
