I hate that contraption they put around your head. When I had mine they also put little pads on either side of the helmet (inside) to cushion it and also so it wouldn't move. It was very confining but I just closed my eyes and kept telling myself that every minute in the machine made me closer to getting out.

If it hadn't been so loud I'd have probably fallen asleep.
I'm glad you made it through the ordeal. Thank goodness we don't have to have those things very often!
