Yard rescue for Ani, 81: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Ani's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Selatan, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia867 views
I'm 81 and I have lived in this house in Jakarta Selatan for 37 years. After the storm in April, 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 twelve 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

hang in there, Ani. Shared it with a few friends. After 22 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
Keep going. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best!
Stay strong, Ani. Your post was clear and honest. After 30 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Aurangabad!
Take care, Ani. Your post was clear and honest
Thanks for sharing this, Ani. Gave what I could, wish it was more. All the best
