Well, I'm putting off a surgery for the same reason. I've never been 'put under,' childbirth was without meds, wisdom teeth taken out with a local only. My Mom has HORRIBLE reactions to being put under and I am in no hurry to see if I inherited that trait.
I am NOT in any hurry for being put...
I'm not a dentist or dental assistant but I've had a gazillion dental appts with all kinds of stuff being done to my teeth, so I peeked in.
I'll leave the for sure answer to the experts, but my guess is that they'll have to extract what's left and then will suggest/offer putting an implant...
FTR, Dewey and I were talking about things from long ago that happened on the bus when we were kids. At least, I was and I think Dewey was, too. NONE of that would happen now-a-days. Just funny bus memories from long ago. :)
I want to start by saying, once again, that I can tell you are a very caring bus driver and those kids are very lucky to have you. I LOVE that you make it a point to play the what you're going to be when you grow up game, what a great idea!

I do use writing apology notes as part of punishment when my kids act up. If they get marked at school or if they were to get marked from on the bus, I make them write an apology note. They don't like to write, so it serves two purposes, apologizing and practice, lol. Plus, then they have to...
I'm glad that your uncle has realized he needs help, that's a HUGE step. I'm glad the family is rallying to help him and take the chickens. I hope it works out well for all of you.
How much property/room do you have? You haven't told us what the max. number of birds is that you think you can handle, property-wise.
