Clear storm damage from Xin's garden in Adelaide
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Xin's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 72 and I have lived in this house in Adelaide for 22 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.
Thank you for reading my story.

A colleague of mine might know someone for this in South Australia. I'll ask around and let you know
Hope it all works out, Xin. Get well soon. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts. Wishing Xin a smooth procedure and a full recovery. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Greetings from San Antonio.
You're not alone, Xin. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Aurangabad so I could bring a meal.
best of luck, Xin. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
