My name is Timmy Johnson and I am a young boy with a lot of mental and physical challenges.
My brother Tommy and I have a big dental appointment coming up and I am very nervous about it.
My mom calls the dental office to see what they can do to help me relax at my appointment.
The receptionist tells my mom that they have an couple of different options for me: 1. Laughing gas.
2. IV sedation.
3. General anesthesia.
4. Their newest option which is called the pedisedate.
My mom asks what that is and the receptionist explains that it is like having laughing gas and playing an game at the same time.
It is an helmet with an movable arm that attaches to the nose with an dental nasal hood that delivers laughing gas and the device can be attached to an gaming device.
There is also an attachment for an anesthesia mask on request.
I say that I want to get the pedisedate helmet and my brother grunts in protest, pointing to the anesthesia mask with rebreather balloon.
On the day of our appointment Tommy and I both get checked in and then we wait for our names to be called by the nurse.
Once our names are called, we head on back to see the dentist.
As we enter the dental room, Tommy tugs at my sleeve, his eyes fixed on the anesthesia mask with the rebreather balloon.
He wants it, so I nod to Mom.
The nurse notices Tommy's insistence and gently places the mask over his nose and mouth.
Tommy breathes in deeply, watching the balloon inflate and deflate.
Meanwhile, I sit in the chair, feeling the pedisedate helmet settle on my head.
The nurse explains how it works, attaching a game controller to my hands.
"Timmy, you ready to play your favorite game while we get started?" the nurse asks with a warm smile.
"Yeah, but what if I can't concentrate because of the noise?" I reply, gripping the controller tightly.
"Don't worry, Timmy," Mom reassures me, "the helmet has noise-canceling headphones, so you'll be in your own little world."
The nurse nods in agreement and turns on the pedisedate helmet.
The screen flickers to life, and I try to focus on the game, but my hands tremble slightly.
The nurse notices and gently places an anesthesia mask over my mouth, connecting it to the pedisedate helmet.
The soft pressure of the mask and the hiss of gas calm me, and I watch as the rebreather balloon inflates and deflates rhythmically.
Mom sits beside me, her hand resting on my arm, offering silent support.
I glance at Tommy, his face peaceful as he breathes with his own mask.
Gradually, my muscles relax, and the game world becomes clearer.
The game world envelops me, its vibrant colors and familiar sounds pulling me in.
My fingers move over the controller, each button press a small victory against my anxiety.
The gentle hiss of the anesthesia mask is a steady companion, whispering calm into my thoughts.
I glance at Tommy; his eyes are half-closed, his breathing slow and even.
The nurse adjusts the mask on my face, ensuring it's snug.
I close my eyes briefly, concentrating on the rhythm of my breath.
Each inhale and exhale syncs with the rise and fall of the rebreather balloon.
"Timmy," Tommy mumbles, his voice slightly muffled by the mask, "I think I can see why you wanted the helmet."
"Really?" I ask, surprised by his change of heart.
"Yeah," he nods slowly, "it's like we're both in our own worlds, but still together."
I nod, understanding his words.
The pedisedate helmet and the anesthesia mask have created a sense of security, allowing us to face our fears together, each in our own way.
The nurse checks on us, her voice gentle.
"Timmy, how are you feeling?"
"I'm good," I respond, my voice steady.
Tommy's eyes flicker open, his gaze meeting mine.
"Can I try the helmet too?" he asks, his voice slurred with drowsiness.
The nurse looks to Mom for approval.
She nods, and the nurse carefully removes Tommy's mask, replacing it with a pedisedate helmet.
Tommy's eyes widen as the game screen flickers to life before him.
He grips the controller, his earlier apprehension replaced by curiosity.
The nurse adjusts the anesthesia mask on Tommy's face, connecting it to the pedisedate helmet.
"Timmy," Tommy whispers, his voice filled with awe, "it's like I'm flying through space."
I chuckle softly, feeling a sense of camaraderie.
"See? I told you it was cool," I reply, glad to share this moment with him.
