Even though I live on forcefully-taken territories (Canada), this still rings true even for those who do not have dental coverage. I know the pain of trying to access healthcare in rural/isolated regions. Thank you for making this!
I'm sorry that you understand but I'm glad to not be alone! The tooth issue prompted me to look up what folks in Alaska and other isolated places do and made me wish that travelling doctors (or in this case, dentists) were more common! Thank you for the kind comment.
This is great. and sadly relatable. glad it was a happy ending!
Sad that you relate but yay we're not alone!
Man, this sure is a horror story. Glad you're alive, MysteryCorgi!
