Yard rescue for Nida, 89: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Nida, 89, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇵🇰 Rawalpindi, Punjab, Pakistan832 views
I'm 89 and I have lived in this house in Rawalpindi for 34 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 ten 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.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thanks for sharing this. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
So sorry you're going through this. Get well soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best
