I asked this mom once if her son was on any asthma medications and she said " No, he has a chihuhua". I finally had to have her explain it to me and she said' Ya know, it dreens the asthma outta his lungs". I have been told that by others since but I don't ask for an explanation anymore. I just write it down.

:chuckle :chuckle

what about "Smilin Mighty Jesus" or "Roaches of the Liver"?

These were two I remember from the med school list at Charity Hospital in New Orleans. frankie
