Yard rescue for Alexander, 80: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Alexander, 80, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in Moscow for 43 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 poor eyesight.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Hope things get better soon. This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Tlaquepaque.
hang in there. Get well soon. Wish I lived closer to Southampton so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Moscow.
Sending love, Alexander. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Your post was clear and honest. Love from Kano.
