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

I'm 90 and I have lived in this house in Juiz de Fora for 28 years. After the storm in August, 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 a heart condition.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.
