This is a good woman being good to her man ……because, HE has obviously been good to her by busting his ass working so he could be a good provider for his family. GOD Bless real men AND women like this one, who give blood sweat and tears for their work and rarely get compensated properly. ❀️‍πŸ”₯

watching this makes me cry 😒 my husband is the same way! he goes out and busts his butt 6 days a week on a strip mine then comes home and props up in his recliner to get just a little relief in his back and shoulders. these men deserve so much more out of this life!!

my mom worked as a boilermaker and every night she came home I had to give her a full body massage because of the pain it put her through and even though I didn't want to I did it because she provided for four kids and more and it was the least I could do to show my appreciation

I poured concrete for over 30 years.. me and my brother in law and I can say that not only have both of our bodies have broken down from the profession but most of the people we have been working with over the years have also gone through this as well. I can't do it anymore because of having 3 hip replacements and two knee replacements and multiple hand and shoulder surgeries... 😫 you know the old saying that when it rains it pours we'll my body is like a human Barometer and I can tell you when the bad weather is coming without any form of media... Stay in school kids. Don't do this for a living.

I hate seeing my husband in pain from work, knowing he has to go back in the next day and do it again regardless I fully understand her doing whatever she can to comfort him and thank her for sharing because she's right alot of people don't know what kind of toll it takes being a Blue collar worker and they should!

Props to you, momma of the family. This man is an amazing man. I have done the same for my family for years. Unfortunately, now I'm fighting an illness that has no answers. I keep fighting. I have to. My family is what I fight for. People call me lazy because I can't do what I used to be able to do. I used to work 12 to 16 hours a day. Now I sleep 14 hours a day. Not by choice. Due to the issues I'm going through, I can't be the provider currently. But my woman is doing amazing. I'm so proud of her.

After two spinal cord surgeries in the past year I'm pretty much paralyzed from the waist down because I continue working. I thought I was doing the right thing which I wasn't .

this is the dark side of what us blue collar guys go through, not only do we sacrifice countless hrs away from our families and missing our children growing up and become young adult's, idk how many days I've left for work at 430 in the morning to get home and my kids already be in bed when I get home. one of the realest statements I've ever heard was " if I give you time we don't have money, and if I'm giving money we don't get time together, and everyone wants it all at the same time, your family your job and by the time we get to enjoy our time together everyone is grown and busy with their own lives and we're left in this kind of shape, i salute all my back breaking father's out here giving their all for the ones they love.

God bless you both! This is respect and love in a marriage. I saw this type of marriage with my grandparents. They both worked hard to provide and care for each other and their family. Never once heard them complain. In fact, it was the opposite, they expressed gratitude for what they did have. Worked for what they needed and wanted, never expected a hand out. Would also give their last cent to someone in need. I miss them more and more every day.

So many times I would sleep on the sofa and my husband slept in the bed because he didn't want to wake my when he woke up screaming in pain from his cancer.I would make him as comfortable as I could and check in on him every other hour.

My hubby was like this for the last 15-16 years. He had to sleep sitting up and he was still in pain but it was definitely worse if he was sleeping in a bed. He slept on the couch, sitting up.I missed sleeping with him so years ago I started sleeping in the couch to, just to be with him. β™‘β™‘β™‘RIP honey. You're an amazing hubby and wife....β™‘ Much love to you both.

shit I'm 34, had spinal fusion about a year ago, went back to work 9 months later, and since Thursday, I'm back out. All because management didn't accommodate me and gave me routes they knew I would deliver and on time, but also didn't care about my health. Now, I'm diagnosed with pseudarthrosis after fusion antrodesis. 100% disabled shits crazy
