Nora, 88, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 88 and I have lived in this house in Dallas for 43 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 arthritis.
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: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. 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.

You're not alone, Nora. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Ottawa donated after I showed her your page. Love from Ottawa.
Sending strength, Nora. Get well soon. God bless.
