Sadbh’s update – November 21st 2012


Sadbh had another wonderful night and her heart was in the 80’s for a good portion of the night.
She was in such a deep sleep and did not wake until 7am.

Her nurse called in sick today so Sadbh had Nana and Granddad all to herself.
After a big breakfast it was time to head downstairs to the basement to play with her toys.  Later on, since the sun was finally out, she got to head out for a walk through the neighborhood. She was in her element and could not stop smiling.

Since she slept in so late, she was not ready for her nap until mid afternoon. Katie came home from work to help Granddad with trach care and everything went well. She slept for an hour and forty minutes, however she was very upset when she woke up.
Katie worked her magic and soon Sadbh was in a very happy mood.

Katie’s friend Carey stopped by for a visit and Sadbh showed her how good she was at wearing her trach cap for 16 minutes! We were all impressed and she did not need the bubbles after a few minutes. She was running around the house yapping like crazy and had no problems with the cap. Eventually she pulled it off so we put her Passy Muir Valve back on and she was off again having fun around the house.

America’s best holiday, Thanksgiving, is tomorrow so we were all busy preparing food in the kitchen. Nana was happy playing with Sadbh and Sadbh was thrilled.
She cannot stop talking about and asking for Nana, it’s great how close they are.

Sadbh’s new nurse is working her first night shift tonight and hopefully everything will go well. Katie is quite stressed out but after working with Julie on Monday I’m confident that she will do well.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
