Clear storm damage from Samuel's garden in Caloocan
Samuel, 88, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Caloocan for 35 years. After the storm in July, 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 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Take care. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Tallahassee but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
Hope things get better soon, Samuel. Hope this works out for you. God bless.
Thinking of you and your family. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. It's not much but it's yours. Greetings from Seongnam.
