Yard rescue for Amit, 88: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Amit's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Lucknow for 32 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 my hip replacement.
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.
Thank you so much.

Get well soon. Greetings from Birmingham.
Wishing you peace, Amit. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Hang in there, Amit. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My husband and I read this together.
sending strength, Amit. Your post was clear and honest. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
Good luck, Amit. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Thanks for sharing this, Amit. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
keep going. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
Sending strength, Amit. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did
Wishing you peace, Amit. Shared it with a few friends.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. After 20 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Lucknow.
Thinking of you and your family, Amit. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
So sorry you're going through this, Amit. This could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 19 people at work.
wishing you peace, Amit. This could happen to any of us.
