Yard rescue for Natalie, 88: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Natalie's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Anaheim for 23 years. After the storm in October, 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 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.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Best of luck, Natalie. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Put this on a community board in Los Angeles this morning. Love from Los Angeles.
Take care. Wishing Natalie a smooth procedure and a full recovery. After 10 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from London.
