Hialeah
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Hialeah for 46 years. After the storm in January, 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 a heart condition. 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. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

    Take care, Deborah. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Heliopolis donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Hialeah

      Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Rome.
