Yard rescue for Diego, 79: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Diego, 79, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Mar del Plata for 45 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 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: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Sending good thoughts. Wishing Diego a smooth procedure and a full recovery. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Sending strength, Diego. This could happen to any of us. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings
Sending strength. Hope the doctors have good news. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Vitória da Conquista.
