Yard rescue for Per, 85: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Per's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇸🇪 Södertälje, Stockholm, Sweden251 views
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Södertälje for 20 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 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: 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.

Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Karachi.
So sorry you're going through this, Per. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My neighbor in Eugene donated after I showed her your page. All the best
