Clear storm damage from Paul's garden in Kisumu
Garden rescue day in Kisumu: bring gloves and a rake.
🇰🇪 Kisumu, Kisumu, Kenya253 views
I'm 81 and I have lived in this house in Kisumu for 20 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 recent fall.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. 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 and your family, Paul. Hope this works out for you. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Jakarta.
Rooting for you. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Madina!
Sending good thoughts. Wishing Paul a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

Good luck, Paul. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Hang in there, Paul. It takes guts to ask. Well done. God bless.
