Sadbh’s update – day 326 March 2, 2012


Sadbh slept upstairs with Mommy last night.  Daddy was still in Las Vegas and Mommy was a little nervous about taking care of Sadbh alone during the night.  Sadbh must’ve sensed this and decided that she needed to get into bed with Mommy at 1:45am. 

She was pretty dry during the night and her trach was making a whistling noise.  Because of this, she and Mommy were awake through the night.  Mommy stayed busy suctioning and dropping saline into her trach to keep it moist.

But around 8:30am Sadbh woke up smiling and ready for some snuggles then ready to play.  When she woke she looked to the side of the bed where Daddy sleeps and did the sign for Daddy as if to ask “Where is Daddy?”.  So Mommy texted Daddy to see if he could Skype and a few minutes later Sadbh was playing with Daddy on the computer again.

The plan for the day was to do trach care early, then pack up and head back down to Ikea (again).  Daddy and Pops (Katie’s father) were going to be arriving in the afternoon so we didn’t want to be out too long. 

Sadbh decided to sleep for over 2 hours after trach care and by the time she woke, it was too late to go to Ikea, but Sadbh was instead surprised when Daddy and Pops showed up just a few minutes later.

Sadbh was thrilled to play with Daddy.  She missed him so much.  But she had to flirt with Pops from a distance since he is still recovering a bit from a cold he had last week. 

Everyone enjoyed a nice dinner together and when it was time for bed Daddy took Sadbh upstairs and put her to sleep.  Hopefully, she will sleep better tonight.



Take care,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
