Yard rescue for Revathi, 74: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Revathi, 74, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Siliguri 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 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.

Thinking of you, Revathi. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Thinking of you, Revathi. Hope the doctors have good news. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Siliguri.
