Yard rescue for Madhu, 74: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Madhu, 74, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇮🇳 Rajkot, Gujarat, India501 views
I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Rajkot for 47 years. After the storm in June, 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 twelve 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.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

So sorry you're going through this, Madhu. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.
Stay strong, Madhu. Shared it with a few friends. After 27 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
