Sadbh’s update – December 12th 2012


It was an uneventful night for Larissa as Sadbh had a wonderful night sleep without any need for attention.
She awoke at 7 and despite such a good night sleep she was a little off form.
She was very clingy and did not want Katie to leave.

Sadbh’s new day nurse, Lana, started today and Sadbh immediately took a shine to her. They both had a good time getting to know each other.

Later in the morning, Sadbh’s friend, Conor and his grandmother, Marion stopped by for a play date. Sadbh was over the moon when she saw Conor and both kids had a great time.

When it came time for her nap Sadbh was exhausted from all the excitement.
Trach care went well as Granddad showed Lana how it’s done.  When it came time to move Sadbh into her cot she woke up. He tried desperately to get her back to sleep but Sadbh was wide-awake by now and wanted to get dressed and play.

Despite numerous attempts, Sadbh refused to wear her trach cap all day. She had no problem wearing her Passy Muir Valve but had no desire to cap her trach.
Granddad made a final attempt around 5 this evening and Sadbh wore her cap for 49 minutes.
She had a great time and really enjoyed playing around the house.

Sadbh was not too eager to go to bed and unfortunately she bumped her head quite hard when she was getting changed into her nightclothes. She ended up with a huge bump and a few tears, although after a cuddle with mommy she was as right as rain in no time was off to sleep.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
