Sadbh’s update – February 6th 2013


It was a much better night for Sadbh and she had a very comfortable sleep until just before Larissa’s shift ended at 6.
This worked out well as Sadbh got to spend a few minutes with Larissa before she left.
She had a big breakfast and could not wait to start the days play activities.

Caity worked today and since the weather was dry they all headed out for a walk around the neighborhood. The power company has a couple of telephone poles lying along the footpath down the street and Sadbh loves to walk along them.
Sadbh also enjoyed checking out a few cats in the neighborhood and they seemed equally interested in her.

When they arrived back at the house, Sadbh could not wait to show Caity her new train-set from her cousins in New Zealand.

Eventually the excitement of the morning got to her and it was time for her bath, nap and trach care.
Everything went great and Sadbh slept for three hours afterwards.

When she woke up she very hungry and very playful. Thankfully, her appetite is back in full and you can see she is starting to put on the weight after being sick with pneumonia,
She wore her cap today for half an hour and wore her Passy Muir Valve for most of the day.

She had a great evening but was very shy when uncle Neil stopped by to say hi. It was the funniest thing. She cuddled up with Granddad first and wouldn’t even look at Neil. Even when she was in my arms she acted extremely shy. I have no idea what got into her as she knows Neil and has been very affectionate towards him in the past.

When it came time for bed, Sadbh got very playful with her socks, gloves and hats. She took one of her socks and placed it on her hand and started to pretend it was a puppet talking to herself. It was one of the funniest things I had seen.
She is quite a character.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
