The kids to drive to the operating room in a new white Mercedes Benz Power Wheels car. The car is remote controlled by a staff member, but the children feel they are in charge of the wheel.

The car was donated to the hospital by Dr. David Coppola, a general surgeon on staff who saw the idea on social media.

"We looked at the potential barriers, safety and infection control concerns. We started to research the car and overcame those barriers. The car is leather inside so it can be easily disinfected.
