Yard rescue for Dilara, 92: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Dilara, 92, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Bornova for 48 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 twelve 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.

This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Bornova.
You're not alone, Dilara. Hope you get there. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
Thinking of you and your family. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. We're a small family in Peshawar but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Peshawar.
