Volunteers wanted: Vidya's yard after the storm
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Vidya's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India415 views
I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Nagpur for 34 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: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thank you for reading my story.

Sending good thoughts, Vidya. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending good thoughts, Vidya. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 28 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Kumasi.
Hope it all works out. Wishing Vidya a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from Campinas
Wishing Vidya a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings
