Sadbh had a beautiful night
and slept so well. She was so relaxed that she tolerated having her trach
capped for two hours and thirty-one minutes in the one go. This is an all time
record and we are so impressed that she did so well.
She slept until 6:30 and
woke up in a great mood. After a nice big cuddle with Katie it was time to head
upstairs while Katie got ready for work. Sadbh got to catch up on Kipper but
was frightened by the fire-breathing dragon. Thankfully it was just a cartoon
so she was safe and sound with her mommy.
She had a nice big hearty
breakfast when she came back downstairs and was excited when Amy arrived.
Her day got even more
exciting when her old nurse Molly stopped by for a visit. Molly was one of her
nurses from Children’s Hospital and she moved to Utah last year.
Sadbh was very shy and it
took a while for her to warm up to Molly. Eventually she came out of her shell
and the fun and games started up again. Even Ali-Baba stopped by for a while and
was delighted to see Molly again.
Trach care was almost
postponed until this evening when Sadbh refused to go to sleep. Thankfully
Ali-Baba persisted and Sadbh finally gave in.
Granddad cleaned while Amy
held and everything went well.
Sadbh slept for almost three
hours and woke up in a wonderful mood just before I arrived home from work.
Katie was able to get home a
little earlier than usual so we packed all of Sadbh’s medical equipment into
her red wagon and headed out for a walk in the sunshine.
It was not long before we
bumped into Maya and her baby sister Elliott. Sadbh and Mya exchanged some
flowers and Maya showed off her Easter eggs.
Next we met Charlotte and
both girls were able to baby sign to each other.
Sadbh had a great walk and the
rest of her evening was spent having fun with Katie and I.
Bedtime appeared to go easy
tonight and Sadbh seemed to drop off to sleep very quickly. I was wrong and
before I knew it she was up sitting in her cot asking for me to come back in to
rock her to sleep. It took about fifteen minutes and she was off into a deep
sleep.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
