work boots for my hardworking husband whose foot is badly infected.

Granted by Heroes: drainco
I am wishing today for a pair of work boots for my husband. He works to support our three children, me and himself. He often works outside and has to walk thru standing water and his boots he has right now are literally falling apart and allowing water to soak his feet. His left foot has a horrible sore on the top of it and it's badly infected causing his foot to swell, but he still laces them up every morning for us. I feel so bad that we can not afford new boots for him because he deserves them just as much or more than anyone. If anyone can help I am sure he would appreciate it just as much as I would. He wears a size 10.5 and they wouldn't have to be steel toed. Thank you for taking the time to read.

Memaw2all yes these are the boots. He has worn them for a year and now there are chunks out of the bottom and theseams are coming apart. I cant wait to graduate so I can go to work and help contribute to the family financially so we can afford these things on our own.

Are these the same boots a hero gifted him with last year? Men wear their shoes out so quick. My husband goes through 10 pair to my one. Hope you find your heroes for him.

I hope you get your hero too. Please get him to look after that foot! I will pray that his foot heals and he gets his boots and you all get a break from hard times.

He needs to take care of his infected foot before it gets so bad he loses it. I hope he gets a boot hero real quick.

What line of work is he in and does he prefer steel toe or non steel toe and is that a regular width or wide?
