Ranch home. Have severe arthritis both knees and problems with rare disease of both hands. Cannot climb ladder or afford the costs of the estimates I've gotten. Can't locate any government assistance? I seldom leave home as I can't sit or stand for long and can't walk far. Don't know where to turn.
A:

A: If you are a veteran try reaching out to veteran organizations. There are also national senior citizen organizations with local chapters. They can sometimes be difficult to navigate but if you keep digging you'd be surprised at what you find. Many communities have online neighborhood "apps" for the computers where you might be able to post that you need some help. Sometimes, just reaching out to your neighbors for help might be all that is needed. I've gladly pushed my lawnmower down the street to mow a neighbor's lawn who needed helpmore than once.
