Stuff named after you?

How often to you get post-surgical orders for "Ted Stockings" to be applied??? And in on facility where I work, they call compression boots, "Pneumatic Teds"

(My wife is always telling me that I'm full of hot air. . . )



Ted

They named a comet after me: Haley's comet

Mine wasn't so much having something named after me but.. before I was a nursing student I worked as a nursing assistant for many years and on one occassion I had done something for a patient and he was so pleased with his care and my professionalism that he began to nickname me Dr White (as this was my surname) I wouldnt mind but there is a well known brand of sanitary towels in the UK with this name!

Once I pointed this out to him, which he found amusing, he insisted on calling me Dr Red instead, which was the colour of my hair at the time... Bless him!

Those are great!!

Things that came before me.........Christmas Carol,............and one of my dad's exgirlfriends.

I worked with a nurse in OB who was such an awesome nurse that over the years, had 20-25 babies named after her (her name was Rosemary)

My name is Angel, so everyone at the LTC facility that I work at thinks that god sent them an Angel to take care of them. How sweet.
