Sadbh’s update – February 7th 2013


Sadbh had a good night but woke up for a short while around 2. She asked for Katie and when Larissa explained that she was sleeping, Sadbh decided that she wanted to play with Larissa instead. Unfortunately for Sadbh, Larissa did not entertain the idea of playing at 2am so Sadbh eventually went back to sleep.

She slept great for the rest of the night and woke up shortly after 6.
She was quite content in her cot, however, and she surprised Katie by lying there playing with her binkys. She stayed like that for almost an hour and was in a great mood.
When she finally got up it was time for breakfast and she had a big appetite.

She had a very relaxing morning and when Caity arrived at 10 it was time to head down to the basement to play with her train set and other toys.

It was a cool but sunny day so they all headed out around the block for a walk. Sadbh was very happy to be out and about.
They were out for about 40 minutes when Sadbh started to get tired. As soon as they arrived home and unloaded all her equipment it was time for her bath, sleep and trach care.
Sadbh slept soundly for two hours and woke up in a great mood after a very restful sleep.

After dinner and a chance to catch up with some playtime, Sadbh, Granddad and Nana bundled up and headed out for another walk. This time they headed up to the campus of Seattle University. Sadbh loves the campus especially the hustle and bustle of all the students.

She had a wonderful evening and was full of energy and fun. She wore her cap for 50 minutes and was very excited when we put a trach cap on her toy monkey.
Sadbh has a monkey named Spud-Monkey and we put Sadbh’s first trach on Spud as soon as we changed out her first ever trach. Today we decided to cap Spud-Monkey to show Sadbh that it can be done and that it’s nothing to be afraid of.
When it came time for bed she insisted on taking Spud-Monkey with her.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
