Video: Amanda's Surgery Adventure

Follow Amanda on her day of surgery at St. Louis Children's Hospital. Learn from Amanda what to expect when you arrive, what to bring (and what to leave at home) and even how fun it can be preparing for surgery.

We recommend that children ages 3-6 view this video with a caregiver one-two days before surgery; children ages 7-12 should view this one to two weeks before surgery.  Teenagers may view at any time.
