I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in San Francisco for 35 years. After the storm in March, 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 poor eyesight. The council has told me it will be six 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. Glad we found this place.

  • Wishing you the best. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best

    • Rooting for you, Eun-kyung. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Hamilton so I could bring a meal.

      • Thanks for sharing this, Eun-kyung. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Toronto.

        • keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of San Francisco.
