RE: These Shoes Are Made For Walking : Photography Contest and Giveway #8 - Theme: Rubber

Hi @heartbeat1515. Yes, they are expensive, but very well made, and worth it. We have a local outlet here, so I wait also for them to have sales. Most of the time I order from the website.

The reason I have to take care of my feet I explained in my freewrite blog: nail polish. I have Type 2 Diabetes. And with this disease, care for your feet is extremely important. I can't afford to get a bruise, injury. Even an ingrown toenail can send me to the hospital. Amputation of feet and legs is a frightening reality for people with Diabetes.

I can't stress enough the important of foot care. Thank you for visiting and leaving such a nice engagement and support.

I understand well about diabetes and the risk you are having. I work in the hospital and I've seen a lot of amputee patient. If it is not because of accident or trauma, the main cause would be diabetes. If you get hurt, it will be difficult to heal and that brings you nearer to infection and much worser condition. I like your rubber story.

So glad you like my story @heartbeat1515. I wanted it to be part of my diabetes and heart problems exercise regime and not about the disease itself, that's why I didn't mention it.

I really like your themed contests. They are easy to complete, but makes you think about ordinary things at the same time and give them a story. Thanks so much for your support and encouragement. Have a great day including the rest of your week.

You're welcome too. I'm glad you enjoyed this contest. Well then I have to catch up with you for more stories 😉😆😆 !tip
