What's in a name?

Nurses Humor

We received a bunch of patients all at once that had been displaced from their apartments due to a fire in the building. They were being triaged for possible smoke inhalation. We wrote down names as they came in - twins - 4 years old - Lamongelo and Orongelo.

Later when the real forms were filled out and the names were spelled, they were Lemon Jello and Orange Jello!!!

These were actually their real names, or was it a mistake? hehehe :eek: :rolleyes: :D

I asked my husband about those names last night. I posted the same names on a different thread, and I made him PROMISE me that he had ACTUALLY seen those names himself. Not some other examiner who TOLD him. And he absolutely swears with a straight face that he has claimants by those names (kids). He also swears that HE PERSONALLY has a claimant whose name is Rotunda and she's a 300# 12 year old.

I still don't believe him. If they're HIS clients, why does everybody in the world know them?????????

He's a quality control person for Social Security Disability claims examiners.
