Yard rescue for Heru, 77: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Bogor: bring gloves and a rake.
🇮🇩 16125, Bogor, West Java, Indonesia1,789 views
I'm 77 and I have lived in this house in Bogor for 46 years. After the storm in April, 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 eight 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hang in there, Heru. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'll check back for the next update. All the best.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care!
Hope it all works out, Heru. Hope you get there. After 9 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything. God bless
Thanks for sharing this, Heru. Hope you get there.
Sending love. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
sending strength, Heru. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
Hope it all works out, Heru. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick.
Sending strength, Heru. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Thinking of Bogor
