Aw man, that really sucks. I was rejected for government aid recently, but that was more on me being unable to put into words my struggles and, uh, the fact I think they genuinely lost 90% of my history after my family doc went awol, but I do know people who are on disability and they agree. They're given too little to live and the whole thing is a mess.

It seems as if I'm in a similar boat as you when it comes to dentists though. They even said I must not develop much tartar or plaque because my teeth are surprisingly not that bad! I was very happy to hear that!

Very true with hospitals. I think I initially got used to them due to breaking my arm and being forgotten at my first visit, and having to visit one for years in order to see a doc in my youth.
