Yard rescue for Laiba, 75: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Laiba, 75, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Abbottabad for 41 years. After the storm in August, 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 my hip replacement.
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: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.

Thinking of you, Laiba. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings.
Hang in there. Shared it with a few friends. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless.
Good luck, Laiba. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Put this on a community board in Lagos this morning.
Sending good thoughts, Laiba. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless.
Thinking of you, Laiba. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Wish I lived closer to Nuremberg so I could bring a meal.
