Sadbh’s update – December 24th 2012


Sadbh slept great through the night and did not budge until 7:20. Katie brought her upstairs to bed for a quick cuddle but it wasn’t long before Sadbh wanted to head back downstairs for breakfast.

It was already Christmas morning in New Zealand so we Skyped with my sister and her family to wish them a Happy Christmas. The two boys were so excited with what they got from Santa.

Sadbh had a very active morning and showed no signs of slowing down.
She had an appointment with Dr. Cavanaugh just before noon for her cranial sacral visit. We were worried that Sadbh would be very fussy during her visit but she was so easy going.
Dr. Cavanaugh was very impressed with how well she was developing and was glad to hear the news from our visit with Dr. Inglis on December 4th.
The visit went well and he as able to relieve a bunch of tension around her neck and skull.

Sadbh was ready for her nap when we got home and she was out light a light moments after drying off from her bath.
Trach care was quick and easy and Sadbh slept for three and a half hours. She was obviously making up for the lack of sleep yesterday.

After dinner Sadbh got to watch Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer. She enjoyed it up to when the abominable snowman came on the scene.
Just before bed we wrote a note and left out a couple of cookies and a glass of milk for Santa. She was very excited and she could not stop saying Ho Ho Ho.

Since we don’t have nurses for the next couple of nights, we moved Sadbh upstairs to sleep with us.
She had no desire to go to sleep and it took a good couple of hours hard work to finally get her to doze off.



All the best and Merry Christmas!

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
