Volunteers wanted: Yến's yard after the storm

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Yến's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 83 and I have lived in this house in Hồ Chí Minh City for 38 years. After the storm in September, 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 heart condition. The council has told me it will be eight 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. Thanks for being kind about this.

  • Thinking of you. I hope things turn around soon. After 29 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
