Yard rescue for Eleanor, 91: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Dayton: bring gloves and a rake.
🇺🇸 45484, Dayton, Ohio, United States1,369 views
I'm 91 and I have lived in this house in Dayton for 27 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 a heart condition.
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.

Hang in there, Eleanor. I hope things turn around soon. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless.
Hang in there, Eleanor. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Dayton.
praying for you, Eleanor. Hope the doctors have good news. Wish I lived closer to Rome so I could bring a meal.
