Yard rescue for Tommaso, 74: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Tommaso, 74, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.
🇮🇹 Rome, Lazio, Italy759 views
I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Rome for 33 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 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.

Best of luck, Tommaso. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
Sending good thoughts, Tommaso. Shared this with my family. Take care.
