Yard rescue for Dinda, 78: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Dinda, 78, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 78 and I have lived in this house in Jakarta Selatan for 32 years. After the storm in February, 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.
I hope life is good to you.

Praying for you, Dinda. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 25 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Good luck, Dinda. Hope this works out for you. God bless.
hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings.
Sending strength, Dinda. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings.
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'll check back for the next update.

Hope things get better soon, Dinda. Get well soon. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan.
Sending good thoughts, Dinda. Hope the doctors have good news. Put this on a community board in Embakasi this morning. God bless.
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor in Yonkers donated after I showed her your page. Love from Yonkers.
Wishing you peace, Dinda. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope May is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Jakarta Selatan.
Wishing you peace, Dinda. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. All the best.

Stay strong, Dinda. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
wishing you peace, Dinda. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
hang in there, Dinda. Hope the doctors have good news. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
