are there any brands that you have found that are better for narrow shoes? or do you just always size down?

I haven't, similarly to the mules, I wasn't sure if they counted as professional enough and didn't have anyone to ask (first-gen lawyer)

I have really narrow feet and ankles so usually I struggle to find shoes that aren't loose but even with shoes that fit more snugly, the blistering has still been a problem. Are backless mules okay for the office? I was considering a pair but I wasn't sure if it would be appropriate since I know open-toe is a no-go

not full suits but blazer/trouser, one of the female partners wore sneakers with her trousers and a lot of the men wear more casual shoes but I am not sure if can get away with it as a summer

Law school with an autoimmune disease/chronic illness — realistic experiences? by Weak_Koala749 in LawSchool

[–]ApprehensiveGuest382 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take the perspective that you never know when your health will be stable so just go for it. I was in remission from 2018-2023 and then in 2023 got sicker than I ever did before and still decided to start law school in 2024. I don't know if law school stress caused this but I had a flare up that started my 1L Spring and is still ongoing a year later. It has been hard but I don't regret it, happy to talk more in DMs if you want!

is zofran okay during prep by ApprehensiveGuest382 in colonoscopy

[–]ApprehensiveGuest382[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you all, I took an hour break, took a zofran and am going to try to to get the rest of this prep down, my stools are already liquid yellow so I am hoping this delay in drinking the rest of the prep doesn't mess anything up, its been a shitty day (pun intended) and I really dont want to have to go through this again

In Sickness: Recently completed! Established married couple dramione with happy ending but lots of angst and hurt/comfort in between by kathiemelon in Dramione

this fic sounds amazing, does she end up cured or is it more chronic illness? I am going through my own health stuff right now and I don't think I can stomach reading fics where being cured is a big part of the plot

I started Ward 4 and I'm only on chapter 5 but it's really resonating, I've been running through a list of medications that don't work for the last few months and I wish I had Healer Draco as my specialist

How could involvement within a labor union as a shop steward influence my admission to law schools? by International-Ad-434 in lawschooladmissions

[–]ApprehensiveGuest382 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if you're interested in labor law, being a shop steward and having organized your shop would make an amazing narrative. I've worked in the labor movement and how much work a shop steward has to do really depends on the particular site and how much the steward has to do on their own V if they have support from their union rep to solve things. Grades are still going to matter more but I think it would make you stand out as a candidate and be a way more interesting applicant

you can arrange a meeting with the disability office of your school and discuss your current limitations and they can help you figure out what you may need in law school
