Sadbh’s update – August 26th, 2012


Sadbh had a lot of secretions through the night and needed suctioning occasionally. She finally woke around 7:30 and was ready for the day to start.
Breakfast was served and Sadbh had yummy blueberry pancakes.

Despite being in a great mood when she woke up, Sadbh was soon quite cranky and very fussy.
She did not have much of an appetite and ended up having a serious temper tantrum.
She seemed quite tired so we thought that trach care might happen early today. It wasn’t the case and Sadbh kept going until noon.
Trach care went quite easily and she slept for almost two hours afterwards.

The weather was kind of funny today so rather than heading out on the lake, we all went for a walk up to Capitol Hill instead.
Sadbh’s mood was much better this time around. She did not want to sit in her stroller and was adamant that she walked without holding anyone’s hand. This was fine until she tripped and fell flat on her face. Thankfully she didn’t have far to go and that she did not cause herself any injury apart from a small bump and a big scare.

We stopped off for lunch along the way and Sadbh was kept entertained by an 8-month girl at the next table. Sadbh was signing like crazy and both girls had a great time.

After we arrived home, it was time to drop Pat off at the airport for her trip to Portland. Sadbh was sad to see her go and gave her a big wave as she got out of the car.

The rest of the evening was spent relaxing and reading her new books.
Just before bedtime Sadbh got to take a bath with Katie and she loved it.
Since she had only one nap today, Sadbh was ready to go to sleep once she was in her pajamas and her teeth were brushed.
Larissa is working tonight and I hope Sadbh gets a good night sleep since she has an important appointment with Dr. Inglis at Children’s Hospital first thing in the morning.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
