Yard rescue for Candra, 88: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Candra, 88, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Bekasi for 31 years. After the storm in July, 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 arthritis.
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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

You're not alone, Candra. Hope this works out for you.
Sending strength. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Kozhikode.
Hope the doctors have good news. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Bekasi.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Belfast but we're thinking of you. All the best
Best of luck, Candra. Hope the doctors have good news. We're a small family in Campinas but we're thinking of you. Love from Campinas.
