Yard rescue for Wambui, 75: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Wambui, 75, can no longer manage the yard after a storm; we're looking for helpers with chainsaws and rakes.

I'm 75 and I have lived in this house in Kinondoni for 41 years. After the storm in July, 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 eight 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.
Glad we found this place.

Hang in there. Wishing Wambui a smooth procedure and a full recovery. Thinking of Kinondoni!
I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Kinondoni.
Hope it all works out, Wambui. Hope the doctors have good news. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
