In one of our online chats, Zel (in Clerkship) requested some stuff she needs for her pediatric rotation. The list included leukoplast - one box. As I was reading the list aloud, Ariel (he was driving) asked why she needed one box.
So I typed away: "Why do you need 1 box leukoplast?"
The quick reply - "Because it's what we use to tape NGTs."
Ariel asked, "What's NGT?". I typed his question.
I read Zel's response aloud, "Nasogastric tube."
I turned to Ariel and asked, "Do you want me to ask what nasogastric is?"
We looked at each other. I laughed. He laughed, shaking his head.
