I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Mumbai for 32 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 arthritis.
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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

you're not alone, Madhuri. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together.
good luck. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you
