Clear storm damage from Teresa's garden in Tijuana
Teresa, 83, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Tijuana 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 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: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. 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.

You're not alone, Teresa. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Blessings
