Sadbh’s update – March 10th 2013


Sadbh slept great and managed to wear her trach cap a couple of times throughout the night. 
I took over from Julie at 6, however since the clocks changed last night it was actually only 5am. Sadbh was still fast asleep and did not wake for another hour.
She was excited to get upstairs to Katie and even more excited for a snuggle.

Sadbh went to church with my parents today and she really enjoyed herself. She danced to the choir and made a lot of new friends.
She missed Katie while she was at mass and on the way home she kept saying “mommy, where are you?”

The rest of her morning was spent playing with her toys and when she eventually started to get tired we started preparing for trach care.
Just after her bath she got a chance to Skype with her uncle Ger and aunt Ann back in Cork.

Trach care was very straightforward as Sadbh was in a deep sleep. Her neck looked very sore so we dressed it up on both sides with medical tape.
She was obviously very tired as she napped for over two and a half hours and when she finally woke up she was still very groggy.

Her mood improved after a bite to eat and a miniature cup cake and the rest of the evening was spent running around the house with her stuffed animals.

When it came time for bed she was quite delirious so it took both Katie and I a lot of effort to get her changed and ready for bed.

It was a lazy day for the most part but after such a busy Saturday it was good to get a chance to relax.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
