I'll second and third some of the comments below. Ha ha. I've been doing a lot of seeing-me-through thinking lately. When I saw a dentist a few weeks ago, she told me I need four crowns. The next day I lost a chunk of a tooth not even in the running.

is this really Margaret Atwood whose booksI have read and loved? My heroine who was at U of T at almost the same time as I was? I am in my 82nd year. Honours English at St Mike’s

Now an artist and , dare I say it, a poet?

You made the right decision. Tooth decay killed many an Early Human. You wouldn’t want to die of a stupidly acquired heart infection!

Good questions. I did my time with my dentist last week and am asking the same questions. II all boils down to the “meaning of life”!
