Clear storm damage from Raju's garden in Kathmandu
Raju, 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 Kathmandu for 48 years. After the storm in June, 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 my hip replacement.
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.
I hope life is good to you.

Thanks for sharing this, Raju. Your post was clear and honest. After 15 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Saint-Denis.
Hang in there, Raju. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
Stay strong, Raju. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'll check back for the next update.
