After about 20 seconds of thought and being given permission, I listed my brother-in-law Matt in my phone as ICE (In Case of Emergency). Actually he is listed as ICE ICE‑ not sure if the emergency folks search by first or last name, and I want to be covered. Following are a few factors that lead to his renaming:
He is married to my sister who knows my medical history
better than I do.
He will always be able to locate the people who have a strong interest in my health and well-being, even those not related to me.
He has 425+ contacts in Linked-In.
He has a valid, and frequently used passport.
He is not prone to freaking out.
He did make me agree that if I croaked he could have my shiny new iPhone. Glad he will be getting his own in October.
How did you do this? Just add the letters to a person's name? Never thought of it. Of course the one time I get clobbered I'll have forgotten my wallet AND phone. I'd almost rather forget my pants these days...
