Yard rescue for Lourdes, 73: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Coyoacán: bring gloves and a rake.
🇲🇽 04032, Coyoacán, Ciudad de México, Mexico1,300 views
I'm 73 and I have lived in this house in Coyoacán for 36 years. After the storm in May, 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 six 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.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Best of luck, Lourdes. Wishing Lourdes a smooth procedure and a full recovery.
Sending strength, Lourdes. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless!
hang in there. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side.
Get well soon. Sent it to 40 people at work. God bless.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Coyoacán
