Sadbh’s update – December 18th 2012


Sadbh had a restless night but thankfully Larissa kept her comfortable so she slept right through until 6:30.

As soon as she was up, she wanted to read to her stuffed cat and Elmo so Katie got her all nice an comfortable in the living room Sadbh had a great time reading about noses.

Shortly after Caity’s shift started both she and Sadbh headed out to back garden so Sadbh could play. It was a very cold morning but Sadbh really enjoyed being outside.
Granddad and Nana got the stroller ready so they all headed off for a walk through the neighborhood and to the shops.

It was time to practice wearing her trach cap shortly after arriving home. Sadbh wore it for a couple of minutes before pulling it off and throwing it away.
She even joined in on the hunt for her trach cap, much to the amusement of everyone.

It was hard to get Sadbh to sleep for her nap and she was beyond tired.  Once asleep, though, trach care was easy, but Sadbh only slept for an hour and twenty minutes.
She woke up in sad mood and it took a while to cheer her up.

Later this evening Sadbh received a visit from Erin and Andrew. They will be heading down to Portland for Christmas so they wanted to stop by to see Sadbh and give her a Christmas gift before they headed off.
Sadbh was very happy to see them and was very playful.
She even got to open her Christmas present.

When it came time for bed, Sadbh gave both Erin and Andrew a big hug each. In fact, Erin received several hugs and as they left Sadbh could not stop blowing them kisses.
It was a special night for Sadbh and she was so happy to see her guests.

Despite all the excitement, Sadbh went to sleep very quickly tonight and hopefully she will get a better night sleep.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
