Sponsor a Dream
Help bring comfort, imagination, and reassurance to children preparing for surgery, anesthesia, and hospital care.
Dream Along: Anesthesia Adventures was created by Dr. Simon Kim, a practicing anesthesiologist, to help children better understand the perioperative experience through gentle storytelling, playful imagination, and a calming companion lullaby.
For many children and families, surgery can feel overwhelming. A simple story can help transform fear into familiarity, giving children a sense of comfort and magic before an important medical experience.
Every child deserves to approach surgery with comfort, understanding, and hope.
Let’s create something meaningful together.
