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

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Awka for 34 years. After the storm in April, 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 ten 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.

Keep going. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Blessings.
Thanks for sharing this, Mercy. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Good luck. Hope the doctors have good news. It's not much but it's yours. Blessings.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Awka.
Take care. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. All the best.
Sending love, Mercy. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
