Volunteers wanted: Musa's yard after the storm
Musa, 75, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Zaria for 40 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 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: 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.

wishing you peace, Musa. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Zaria.
Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Petrópolis.
Keep going, Musa. Hope the doctors have good news. After 6 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
