As far as the yard work......yeah, yard work sucks but it has to be done. Ok, so Mr Giggles is no longer capable (maybe) of doing what it takes so, why can't he find some enterprising kid(s) and pay them a small fee to help out? (Supervised of course) I mean shit.....even these days there's got to be SOME kids who will do a little work for some bucks to waste on mindless shit or whatever that their parents refuse to finance.

Doesn't your council dept. have something to say?
Here they ask the elderly if they need help with stuff like that. People put on community service do that sort of thing, or paint and decorate for the disabled or elderly.
Jack across the road had some people come and relaid his garden so he and his dog could get round it easier. Then a couple of girls came to do weeding and hedge trimming. They said they had been shop-lifting and since they couldn't pay the fine they were working 150 hours penalty. I notice one of them still stops by to do the front garden and pulls the dustbins out for Jack every week, so she must live local.
Even so I know Jack was paying someone to tidy up before his son came to visit from the States.
