Yard rescue for Amol, 87: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Amol, 87, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇮🇳 Mangaluru, Karnataka, India504 views
I'm 87 and I have lived in this house in Mangaluru for 33 years. After the storm in May, 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 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.
Thank you so much.

Sending strength, Amol. Wishing Amol a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Greetings from Regensburg
Good luck, Amol. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Soweto so I could bring a meal.
Take care, Amol. Hope the doctors have good news. Blessings.
Sending good thoughts, Amol. Hope you get there. Blessings
thinking of you, Amol. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Sending love. Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Eldoret.
Stay strong, Amol. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in A Coruña this morning.
Hope things get better soon, Amol. Shared this with my family.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Jakarta
