Yard rescue for Ika, 71: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Ika, 71, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 71 and I have lived in this house in Kediri for 40 years. After the storm in September, 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 recent fall.
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.
Thank you for reading my story.

sending good thoughts, Ika. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Put this on a community board in Fort Worth this morning. Take care.
wishing you the best, Ika. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Johannesburg this morning.
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home!
