Volunteers wanted: Samina's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Samina's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Lahore for 26 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 arthritis.
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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

So sorry you're going through this, Samina. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Kraków
hope things get better soon, Samina. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted.
Sending strength, Samina. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Lahore.
best of luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Sent it to 11 people at work. Thinking of Lahore
Hope it all works out, Samina. Looking forward to the next update. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Incheon.
Hang in there, Samina. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Love from Manukau.
Good luck. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless
