Sadbh’s update – January 28th 2013


Sadbh had a restless night and woke up at 7. She immediately started to ask for Granddad and Nana and could not wait for the fun and games to start.

She had a great morning with plenty of playtime. She worked up a big appetite and ate a huge breakfast.

We are narrowing down our nanny candidates so today one of the nannies came by to meet my parents for a second interview.
It was a very good meeting and Sadbh got to play with her for a couple of hours.

Next it was time for Sadbh to take a nap. She had no problem going to sleep and slept for an hour and a half.

After dinner she wore her trach cap for 22 minutes until her airway started to get very dry. She had been wearing her Passy Muir Valve all day and I think it dried out her trach.

Later on she got to Skype with her aunt Trish and cousin Conor in New Zealand. She had a good laugh with her cousin and she had a great time showing off her many hats.

Later when it was time for bed, Sadbh started wearing the glasses and mouth from her Mr. Potato Head toys. It was comical and eventually she was stark naked running around with her favorite woolly hat and glasses.

Even though she was very tired, it took a while to get Sadbh to sleep. She was wired and had no desire to sleep.  Just before she dozed off, she suddenly grabbed her kitty cat and said “kitty fly” as she moved kitty through the air.  She then turned and started giggling, cracking herself up about the flying kitty.  It was hysterical.

As soon as she dozed off we were able to manage trach care.

Hopefully she will have a much better night sleep tonight.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
