Nixon, New Jersey – December 20, 1946

The sprawling home of Stanhope Nixon was overflowing with guests, alcohol, and music as the annual Nixon Nitration Works holiday party was in full swing. Catering staff were milling about with silver trays of canapés and champagne while the management staff and their wives ate, drank, and made merry amongst the millwork and art that adorned Lewis’s father’s New Jersey home.

Lewis himself was busy playing host alongside his father, with his British war bride Irene in tow, as Dick kindly introduced you to his immediate supervisor. The modest diamond engagement ring and matching wedding band on your left ring finger refracted the light against the glass of champagne Lewis had planted in your hand upon your arrival, snagging your attention as it still tended to do, even eight months on.

The end of the war had come around the same time for you and Dick, with the Japanese surrender for him and with your discharge from Major Wilke’s command upon the arrival of the Allied prosecutorial team in Nuremberg furnished with a fleet of translators freshly released from Bletchley Park and other frontline duties. It had been bittersweet to be no longer needed, but as you had admitted to Dick that dreamy summer day in Austria, you were quite finished with your time in Europe.

It had taken over five months for Europe to let you go, however. Returning to England had been the easy part, your uncle’s widow in Oxford welcoming you back with open arms. With your more ambiguous service record under CWAC, however, return to Canada had taken rather longer. Priority on troop ships was naturally given to the boys in uniform, and then the girls who had enlisted in Canada. You had waited impatiently for your turn, working with your aunt to alter the wedding gown she had squirreled away from her own marriage in 1936. It had been her hope for her own daughter to wear it someday, but she had insisted as you were the closest thing she would ever have to such a person now, you ought to have it. So, it had become your joint project to turn it into something more modern for whenever you could find yourself standing in front of Dick Winters again.

That chance had not presented itself until March of 1946. Dick had arrived by train in your hometown in Canada, insistent on asking your father’s permission to marry you in person. He brought a ring, as promised, and married you one week later. Immigration paperwork had taken six weeks to clear, but you were grateful that it was nothing like the delay women from overseas endured. By the time you arrived in Nixon, New Jersey, Dick had a modest house and a car waiting for you, true to his word again. By the fall, you’d started offering private French lessons and you and Dick were seriously discussing whether or not you would attend vocational school to become a public-school teacher. Life was good, better than you could have ever imagined.

This party, however, had begun to drag on. Your feet were beginning to hurt as you stood around in your heels and you were feeling the strain of trying keep up with the myriad of conversations swirling around you amid the din of music and laughter. Dick’s hand on your lower back had you turning to him as he leaned into your left ear. “Let me show you the library.” His thumb swept along the fabric of your dress soothingly and you nodded gratefully as he excused you both.

Leading you down the hallway confidently, you wondered how many times he had been in this house, but felt your shoulders relax as the oppressive wall of sound faded away behind you. Guiding you around a corner, you couldn’t help but gasp as you stepped into a room filled with an expansive collection of leatherbound books, a fire laid in a stone hearth with a cozy seating area in front anchoring the space.

“Did we just find heaven?” You whispered conspiratorially and he chuckled as he kissed your temple, leading you to sit on an overstuffed leather sofa.

Setting down your now-empty glass on the low table in front of you, you sighed as you pressed a thumb between your brows. “I’m sorry it was so obvious I was having a hard time in there.” You apologized softly.

Sliding an arm around your shoulders, he gave a gentle squeeze. “Only to me, honey.” He assured you.

The sound of footsteps in the hall had both your heads turning sharply, concerned your sanctuary was about to be disrupted, but it was only Lewis who appeared in the doorway. “I thought I saw you two sneak off here.” He smirked, a glass of whisky in one hand and a bottle of Canada Dry ginger ale in the other. Kicking the door shut behind him, he came to sit in one of the armchairs across from the pair of you.

“Apparently we were not as subtle as we hoped.” You laughed as he poured half the bottle into your empty glass before handing the remainder to Dick, raising his own glass of amber liquid in a toast.

“Happy Holidays.”

“Happy Holidays, Lew.” Dick replied before your glassware came together in an awkward symphony of mismatched ‘clinks’ before you each took an appreciative sip.

“And to think we spent the last few scattered hither and yon.” Lewis remarked.

“Eating potatoes…” you muttered.

“Or nothing at all.” Dick added thoughtfully.

“Couldn’t get beef, Vat 69…nylons…” Lewis gave a nod in your direction, and you glanced at the closed door before eyeing him over the rim of your glass.

“Oh, I suppose it was a bit of a nuisance, but I honestly did appreciate having silk in my parachutes.” You took a leisurely sip, waiting for his reaction.

It unfolded slowly, his eyes widening before he sucked in a breath laced with droplets of his treasured whisky before coughing violently, pointing at you. “I knew it.” He wheezed eventually as you tried not to laugh too brightly at his expense. Dick held no such qualms, laughing richly beside you.

“Of course you did, you saw my last day firsthand.”

“But you finally admitted it! Please, you have to tell me everything…” He leaned forward eagerly, and you swallowed, wishing more than anything that you could.

There was still a great deal you hadn’t even shared with Dick; The Official Secrets Act preventing you from divulging anything. How you longed to share everything with them – the training schools in Scotland, the slosh of an aggressive amount of rum in your belly as you had fallen no more than ten seconds to hit the ground outside Lyon, your harrowing journey across the Pyrenees mountains into Spain to find passage back to England with your fresh side wound nagging at every step. The determination that had driven you back to Normandy just weeks after you return to London, and the eight months of exhausting, tension-laced work that had preceded their arrival. How you longed to share everything, to commiserate and to laugh. To be honest.

“Someday, Lewis. Someday it won’t be treason to talk about it and I will tell you everything.” You promised.

“To someday, then.” He grinned, raising his glass in another toast. “And believe me I will hold you to that.”

Laughing warmly, you raised yours in return. “To someday.”

Top 5 MOST useful tools for blind people just starting out

Top 5 most fave tools for the blind overall

Top 5 least useful

Top 5 fucking weirdest and/or funniest

This is a big ask and I will do my best to answer, with the caveat that I am just a single blind person with memory issues who doesn't remember everything my blind friends have told me. XD I am counting other people as tools in this list because a person with eyes sometimes is a handy tool for us. XD

Top 5 MOST useful tools for blind people just starting out 1. White cane 2. Blindness skills training through centers, government programs like Vocational Rehabilitation, Orientation & Mobility specialists, and anywhere you can find it 3. Membership with the National Talking Book Library aka NLS in your state (US); I think the UK is RNIB and Canada has one, not sure about other countries 4. Supportive family and friends and other blind people if you can find them 5. Screen reader (NVDA is free for Windows, iPhone has VoiceOver, Android uses TalkBack)

Top 5 most fave tools for the blind overall 1. White cane and/or guide dog 2. Text to speech, screen readers, audio books, audio described movies and tv 3. Accessible smart phones (often iPhone but Android is catching up) 4. Bump dots (stick-on tactile dots you put around your home) 5. Braille and refreshable braille displays/notetakers

Top 5 least useful 1. Sighted people inventing crap without talking to any blind people ("smart" canes, "smart" shoes, dangerous devices you hold in your only free hand that claim to tell you what's in front of you but actually don't, screen reader breaking "accessibility" overlays, etc...) 2. That ring which only shows one braille cell at a time (that's not how anyone reads) 3. Strangers giving/yelling vague directions ("It's right over there!", "Oh my god watch out for the stairs (that you are halfway down)!", giving directions to the guide dog who doesn't speak English or any language because they are a dog...) 4. Hot liquid measuring devices (always broken, the noise they make is so fucking loud it's caused me a lot more injury than just sticking my finger in the hot liquid, will wake up the neighbors) 5. All but one use case of AI claiming to be for the blind, at least as far as I've seen

Top 5 fucking weirdest and/or funniest 1. Ping pong balls (good for measuring hot liquids) 2. Funnels (really helpful for pouring liquids) 3. The lanyard strap that sticks to the back of your phone so you can wear it around your neck (looks silly, is incredibly useful) 4. White cane holster (yes it's a thing, I have at least three XD) 5. Things being organized Very Specifically (close your eyes and YOU try to find the remote after someone put it in a random place! XD)

"The steady progress of urbanization, industrialization, and specialization and the sharply increasing life tempo and competitiveness decreased the tolerance for retarded individuals, and less and less was there a place for them in the community, socially or even physically.

In the late nineteen forties and early fifties into this situation broke the movement or, more appropriately, the rebellion of parents of mentally retarded children. Throughout the United States and Canada, in England, France and Scandinavian countries, in Australia and New Zealand these parents stood up and demanded that their children not be denied the privilege of schooling, vocational training, and meaningful occupations [..] Overall the field of education reacted negatively. [..] educators responded with a terminological sleight-of-hand, the effect of which is still haunting community planning.

They introduced a supposed philosophical and methodological difference between educability and trainability. Mildly retarded children, those with an I.Q. above 50, were termed educable; the moderately retarded were considered ineducable but trainable. Also, many prominent leaders in special education believed that this 'training' was not a responsibility of the public schools but a 'welfare' job. Those below the 'trainable' level, the educators chose to call 'custodial' cases, suggesting that nothing more than safekeeping could meet their needs.

In the ensuing years this viewpoint failed to prevail as, under pressure from parents, legislation was enacted in more and more states making the education of the so-called trainable child a mandated task of the public schools."

[perks-of-being-a-nurse]

What made you want to become a nurse ?

hey @coldbrewman1 ! sorry I'm not sure when you sent this, I'm not super active on this blog anymore and mostly just post a mash up of things on my main @starfish-enterprise .

anyway! I don't have a super profound answer to this question. I've always been interested in medical things/the human body as long as I can remember. I remember looking at human body books I had as a little kid and stuff like that. this turned into watching medical shows, reading lots of random stuff, and sneakily watching medical reality/reenactment shows when I wasn't supposed to be watching TLC 😆

I've been pretty involved in scouts Canada since I was six going up through the program, and through scouts I had opportunities to do first aid training which I really liked. I also met a lot of amazing people who are lifelong friends who shared my same interests, and starting in highschool I was able to be involved in a "vocational program" focused on first aid and medical training and providing volunteer first aid for camps, scouting events, and community events. I have been able to be part of the medical service for three national scout camps with thousands of kids and it's amazing!

doing this volunteering kind of solidified in my mind like okay something medical is definitely what I want to do. originally I really wanted to be a paramedic, and the year after I graduated from high school I got my emergency medical responder license. I never ended up getting paid to work with that license (I did volunteer,) but I did volunteer under that scope. where I live it can be difficult to make a good wage starting out as a paramedic. BC has a provincial paramedic service, and it's a union (which is great) so it's all seniority based, so getting a full time position in a city can take a long time. on call hourly pay is terrible, and you usually start in a rural area where you might not get a lot of calls, so if you don't get any calls you could make just $14 for a 12 hour shift.

my mom discouraged me from pursuing that for various reasons, and she also really encouraged me to get a university degree, which is what most people do in my family. I didn't want to do just like a random biology degree, because I don't necessarily work well when I can't see a clear trajectory and a concrete end goal of what I'm working towards, if that makes sense. even doing a degree with the goal of med school still has a lot of possible routes to get there, and it's so much school, which is not my favourite lol. I also knew I still wanted to do something medical/health care related, so that led me to nursing! I applied to a few universities in my last year of high school, and I was accepted to nursing programs at Queens and Western universities in Ontario. I almost went to Queens, but I didn't feel ready to go straight into university after high school.

I took a year off, did that EMR course and licensing, worked at a grocery store and as a nanny, and did volunteer ski patrol (more first aid) at my local ski hill.

during that year I applied to my local nursing program which I wasn't able to apply to straight out of high school due to various course credit stuff which they have since changed. I was lucky enough to get in on my first try, which is amazing because there's often a long wait-list for this program. then I finished and became a nurse!

tldr: I like medical stuff, becoming a doctor is a lot of school, and paramedics don't make as much money 😆

anyway, I don't a have a super profound answer or anything, it was just a good career choice that worked for me. nursing wasn't a calling to me, its not really my passion, it's my job. it's a job that I really like and sometimes love, but it's my job, not my life. I think we need to hear more of that because it will help nurses get paid more and change public perception. I'm not nursing for altruistic reasons, and honestly I don't know anyone who is. the narrative of nursing being a calling or whatever needs to change imo.

sorry about my little diversion at the end there! there's the long convoluted answer 😆

Key Differences Between Work, Study, and Tourist Visas: What You Need to Know

 

When planning to travel internationally, understanding the type of visa you need is crucial. Work, study, and tourist visas are the most common categories, each designed for different purposes. While they all allow entry into a foreign country, they come with distinct requirements, privileges, and limitations. Here’s a breakdown of each type of visa to help clarify the key differences:

1. Work Visa

A work visa is specifically designed for individuals who plan to enter a foreign country to work. These visas are typically issued by countries to skilled professionals, workers, and employees of companies.

Key Features of a Work Visa:

Purpose: A work visa is required if you intend to stay in a country for employment purposes. It’s often linked to a job offer or a specific employment contract.

Duration: The validity of a work visa depends on the terms of the employment contract. Typically, these visas are issued for several months to years.

Requirements: Applicants must usually provide proof of a job offer, qualifications, and sometimes, the employer must demonstrate that no local candidates were available for the role.

Restrictions: Work visas often have restrictions, such as the type of work you can perform or the employer you can work for. Violating these terms can result in fines or deportation.

Example: If you're moving to the United States for a job, you would need an H-1B work visa. Similarly, in Canada, skilled professionals would apply for a work permit under specific categories such as the Express Entry program.

2. Study Visa

A study visa is intended for individuals who wish to pursue educational opportunities abroad, such as attending a university, language school, or vocational training program. These visas are usually granted for the duration of the course or program.

Key Features of a Study Visa:

Purpose: A study visa is for students enrolled in academic or vocational institutions abroad.

Duration: The validity is typically tied to the length of your course, ranging from a few months to several years, depending on the level of study.

Requirements: Applicants must prove acceptance into a recognized institution, sufficient financial resources to cover tuition and living expenses, and sometimes proof of language proficiency (e.g., IELTS or TOEFL for English-speaking countries).

Restrictions: With a study visa, work rights may be limited. For example, many countries allow students to work part-time while studying, but there are often restrictions on the number of hours per week.

Example: If you’re planning to study in the UK, you would apply for a Tier 4 Student Visa. For study in the US, students generally apply for an F-1 visa, which allows for part-time work on campus during their studies.

3. Tourist Visa

A tourist visa is for individuals who wish to visit a country for leisure, tourism, or to visit friends and family. This visa typically has a limited duration and does not allow the visa holder to work or study.

Key Features of a Tourist Visa:

Purpose: A tourist visa is granted for leisure travel, visiting relatives or friends, or exploring a country’s attractions.

Duration: Tourist visas are usually short-term, ranging from a few weeks to a few months. Some countries issue visas for multiple entries, while others only allow a single visit.

Requirements: Applicants typically need to show proof of travel plans, accommodation, and financial means to support themselves during their stay.

Restrictions: Tourist visas do not permit the holder to engage in any paid employment, academic study, or long-term residence. Violating these terms can lead to the visa being revoked and future travel restrictions.

Example: If you're planning to visit France for tourism, you would need a Schengen short-stay visa. In the United States, the B-2 Tourist Visa is for those who wish to visit for leisure.

Key Differences Summary

Always check the specific visa conditions for the country you plan to visit and seek professional guidance if needed to ensure a smooth application process.,

Understanding the Basics of a Study Visa

1. Purpose of a Student Visa

A student visa is designed to grant individuals the legal right to enter a country for academic purposes. Unlike tourist or business visas, student visas focus on enabling foreign nationals to pursue their studies for a set period of time. The visa is typically tied to the length of your academic program, such as a bachelor's, master’s, or vocational course, and allows you to reside in the host country for that duration.

Some student visas also come with conditions that enable students to work part-time during their studies, participate in internships, or apply for post-study work visas after completing their education. Each country has its own set of rules, so understanding these specifics is essential for international students.

2. Types of Student Visas

The student visa category is broad and varies by country, offering different types of visas depending on the duration and nature of the study program. Here are some common types:

Short-Term Study Visas: For courses lasting less than six months, such as language courses or exchange programs.

Long-Term Study Visas: For students pursuing degree programs, these visas cover extended stays, typically tied to undergraduate, graduate, or vocational training programs.

Post-Graduation Work Visas: Some countries offer work permit visas after the completion of a degree, allowing graduates to gain work experience and possibly transition to permanent residency. Countries like Canada, Australia, and the UK have popular programs in this category.

Vocational Training Visas: For those entering technical or vocational schools, these visas are often tailored to training programs rather than academic study.

3. Study Visa for Abroad: The Application Process

The visa process for obtaining a student visa varies depending on the country you choose to study in. However, there are common steps involved in the application process, including:

Obtaining a Letter of Acceptance: Before applying for a student visa, you must be accepted into a recognized educational institution in your host country. The institution will provide a formal letter that is required to start the visa process.

Completing the Visa Application: Once you have your acceptance letter, the next step is to fill out the visa application form. Many countries have online systems that allow students to submit applications digitally.

Gathering Required Documents: The visa process involves submitting various documents, such as your passport, proof of financial support, academic transcripts, health insurance, and, in some cases, proof of language proficiency (e.g., TOEFL or IELTS scores for English-speaking countries).

Visa Application Fee: Most visa applications come with a fee that varies by country. Ensure you budget for this when planning your study abroad.

Biometric Data Submission: Some countries require you to submit biometric data, such as fingerprints or a photo, as part of the visa application process.

Visa Interview: Depending on the country, you may be required to attend an interview at the consulate or embassy. During the interview, visa officers may ask questions about your academic plans, financial situation, and intent to return home after your studies.

4. Key Services in the Visa Application Process

Navigating the visa application process can be complex, which is where visa services, including visa consultancy services and visa consultant services, come into play. These services are designed to help students through the application process and ensure their paperwork is in order.

Visa Consultant Services: Visa consultants specialize in helping students navigate the requirements of different countries. They can assist with gathering the necessary documents, preparing for interviews, and meeting application deadlines.

Visa Consultancy Services: These services often offer more comprehensive support, including advice on which country and institution may be best suited to your academic goals, as well as helping with the visa process. For students unfamiliar with the requirements of studying abroad, visa consultancy services provide peace of mind and guidance.

5. Eligibility Criteria for a Student Visa

Each country sets its own criteria for issuing a student visa. Common requirements include:

Proof of Enrollment: You must be accepted by a recognized educational institution, and the institution must provide you with an official letter of acceptance.

Financial Proof: Most countries require you to show that you have the financial means to cover tuition fees and living expenses for the duration of your stay. This might include bank statements, scholarship letters, or sponsorship proof.

Language Proficiency: Depending on the country and the course language, you may need to demonstrate language proficiency through standardized tests.

Health and Travel Insurance: Many countries require international students to have health insurance that covers medical emergencies and treatments.

Clean Criminal Record: In some cases, students must present a clean criminal record or undergo background checks to ensure security and compliance with immigration laws.

6. Working While Studying: The Work Permit Visa

In many countries, student visas come with work rights, allowing students to work part-time during their studies. For example, in countries like Canada, Australia, and the UK, international students on a student visa are typically allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during the academic year and full-time during holidays. This helps students cover their living expenses and gain valuable work experience.

After graduation, you may be eligible for a work permit visa, allowing you to stay and work in the country for a few years. Countries like Canada, New Zealand, and Australia have popular post-graduation work permits, which can often lead to permanent residency.

7. Common Challenges and Visa Rejections

Despite following the correct visa process, it’s possible for a student visa application to be rejected. Some common reasons include:

Incomplete Documentation: Missing important documents like proof of financial support or your acceptance letter can lead to rejection.

Inadequate Financial Proof: If you cannot prove that you have enough funds to cover your stay, your visa may be denied.

Intent to Return: In some countries, visa officers want to ensure that you intend to return to your home country after your studies. Failure to demonstrate this intent can result in a rejection.

Overlooking Visa Application Deadlines: Failing to submit your application on time can also lead to delays or rejections.

8. Visa Consultancy and Support Services

To avoid these challenges, many students turn to visa consultancy services for expert advice and assistance. These services help students prepare their documents, meet deadlines, and ensure their applications are complete and accurate. Whether through a local office or online service, visa consultancy services have become invaluable in helping students navigate the complexities of applying for a study visa abroad.
