Yard rescue for Roberto, 84: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Roberto, 84, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇧🇷 Duque de Caxias, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil624 views
I'm 84 and I have lived in this house in Duque de Caxias for 27 years. After the storm in September, 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 poor eyesight.
The council has told me it will be twelve 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.
