Volunteers wanted: Guilherme's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Guilherme's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇧🇷 Contagem, Minas Gerais, Brazil848 views
I'm 90 and I have lived in this house in Contagem for 22 years. After the storm in November, 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 six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you so much.

You're not alone. Get well soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Put this on a community board in Jakarta Barat this morning. Love from Jakarta Barat.
Take care, Guilherme. Get well soon. Please keep us posted.
Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Contagem
Sending strength. Wishing Guilherme a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Contagem.
