Yard rescue for Soo-ah, 90: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Soo-ah, 90, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we are looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 90 and I have lived in this house in Busan for 50 years. After the storm in May, 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: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
Thanks for sharing this, Soo-ah. Look after yourselves too, caregivers need rest. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Coyoacán.
