Yard rescue for Kim, 75: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Fresno: bring gloves and a rake.
🇺🇸 93701, Fresno, California, United States944 views
I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Fresno for 30 years. After the storm in December, 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 ten 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.

Best of luck, Kim. This could happen to any of us.
I hope things turn around soon. I hope March is when things finally get easier. Love from Mysuru.
You're not alone, Kim. Hope you get there. Blessings
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Fukuoka this morning.
Thinking of you. Get well soon. Thinking of Fresno
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Fresno
Keep going, Kim. Shared it with a few friends. After 29 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Port Harcourt.
You're not alone, Kim. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Sending strength, Kim. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. Love from Polokwane
You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. I'll check back for the next update. Take care
Keep going. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Hyderabad this morning
Sending good thoughts. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Rooting for you, Kim. Wishing Kim a smooth procedure and a full recovery. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
You're not alone, Kim. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.
This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Medina.
