Sadbh’s update – November 4th 2012


Sadbh and Mommy slept pretty well, but when they woke up, they were both horizontal across the bed.  

The clock went back an hour last night due to daylight savings time, so Sadbh’s day started earlier than usual.  Still, she slept until 8am and was in a great mood when she woke.

After breakfast, we decided to try out her trach cap.  Poppy distracted her with lots of bubbles and Sadbh wore the cap for a total of about 20 minutes.  She did great, but towards the end Katie could tell that she was struggling as her chest began to retract. It was time for a break.

Sadbh tried on her Flamenco dress and enjoyed running around the house and dancing in it.  It was quite the sight.

Trach care went well and Sadbh slept on for a while afterwards.  When she woke up, she was delighted to see that Katie’s friend Michelle was over to visit. Sadbh hadn’t seen Michelle since May, but she remembered her quickly. Sadbh grabbed her hand and was soon showing Michelle around the house. 

Sadbh, Poppy, Michelle, Nana, Grandad and Katie enjoyed the afternoon catching up and playing.  Soon Daddy came home and Sadbh was thrilled to see him.  He had brought her a nice present and Sadbh spent the rest of the evening playing with it.

Katie took Poppy to the airport so that he could return to San Francisco.  Sadbh was sad to see him go and she can’t wait for his next visit.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
