I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Gazipur for 41 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 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. Thank you so much.

    • Rooting for you, Priya. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Pune.

      • Praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Fortaleza.

          • Praying for you, Priya. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't give up.

            • Wishing you the best. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 29 people at work. Take care.
