Wish submitted by:

Douglas is a bright and thoughtful child who enjoys reading and walking in the park. His life has been challenging due to his older brother's struggle with drug addiction, which has created instability at home. This situation fills Douglas and his siblings with anxiety and forces them to take on heavy responsibilities. Despite the difficulties, Douglas remains optimistic and hopes his brother will find the help he needs to recover, dreaming of a happier future for their family.

Douglas is a young boy who loves playing and has a special fondness for tennis shoes. However, he hasn’t been able to get new shoes because of his brother’s struggle with addiction. He’s been wearing the same pair from last year, and they are now too small and worn out. This worries Douglas, as he fears being bullied at school due to his shoes. He feels uncertain about when he might get a new pair. Despite these challenges, Douglas stays hopeful and enjoys playing. A new pair of shoes for Christmas would make him feel more confident and allow him to focus on what he loves without fear of embarrassment.
