Clear storm damage from Michelle's garden in Nashville
Michelle, 92, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Nashville for 36 years. After the storm in December, 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 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.

Hang in there, Michelle. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Thinking of you and your family. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Nashville.
Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Liverpool.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Badagry!
Rooting for you, Michelle. Hope you get there. Take care.
Wishing you the best, Michelle. 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. Thinking of Nashville.
Good luck. Wishing Michelle a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
take care, Michelle. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Nashville.
Sending strength. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in London but we're thinking of you. All the best.
