One interesting aspect is that he did not contract any major (contagious) disease while not having access to a doctor or any medicine (beyond what he may have found/stolen from cabins, etc. He attributed his good health to being away from people (and thus disease). Also he was able to take good care of his Rx glasses for all those year. No loss or breakage.

I was wondering about his dental hygiene. I've never had a major toothache before, but I've heard they are off-the-charts painful. Maybe he went to the dentist, too, off his stolen goods ?
