Sadbh’s update – day 329 March 5th, 2012


Starting around 11:15 last night, Sadbh grew restless in her sleep, and Larissa had to work hard to keep her asleep.
Eventually at 4:30, Katie was called down to feed a very hungry baby.

An hour late, Sadbh was back to sleep until 7:30, and then she was up for the rest of the day.

We did not have nurse care today, so Ali-Baba came by to hang out and play with Sadbh for a few hours.
After trach care, Sadbh had a great sleep for an hour and ten minutes.
When she wakes up, Ali-Baba feeds her a bottle, just before she heads home.

Later in the day, Granddad bundled Sadbh up nice and warm and took her for a walk around the neighborhood. The weather was very changeable today, and since it looked like it could rain or even snow at any moment, Granddad stayed close to the house.
Sadbh had a wonderful sleep and Granddad enjoyed being out in the fresh air.

Our neighborhood is quite diverse and interesting to say the least. As my father is walking down one of the streets close by, a couple came around the corner and headed down the road in front of him. He noticed that the guy had a petrol can in one hand, and a cigarette in the other. Moments later, he noticed that the guy was trying to light his cigarette and since it was windy, he used his other hand to shield the flame, while still holding the petrol can.
It didn’t take my father long to distance himself and Sadbh from this couple.

Sadbh was in a fantastic mood when I got home and was full of energy.
It was amazing how fast the evening flew by, and before we knew it, it was time for bed.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
