Yard rescue for Waqas, 90: fallen trees and overgrown beds

Waqas, 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 Lahore for 45 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 a heart condition. The council has told me it will be ten 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. I hope life is good to you.
