Sadbh’s update – March 6th 2013


Sadbh had a very restless night so Larissa decided not to cap her trach allowing her to sleep as comfortably as possible.
Thankfully, she slept through the night and woke up just after Larissa’s shift ended.

As usual she was thrilled to see Katie and for the fun and games to start. When she woke up, Katie mentioned to her that Ali-Baba might stop by to play.  Sadbh promptly requested for her wires, tubes and sleep sack to be removed and insisted on looking for Ali-Baba throughout the house.  Unfortunately, Ali-Baba hadn’t arrived yet, so Sadbh couldn’t find her.

Ali-Baba did stop by later in the morning, however, and Sadbh was delighted to see her. They had a great time playing and Ali-Baba wiped Sadbh out in time for trach care.

Sadbh slept for an hour and a half and woke up hungry and ready for the games to start again.

The weather was terrible so Sadbh was house bound all day. She did not seem to mind as she had so many toys out and was enjoying all of them.
After I came home from work she had me chasing her around the house. She was running like crazy and did not stop for ages. Since the hole in her trach is so small, 3mm, it was interesting to see her go for so long and not run out of breath.

After dinner Sadbh was exhausted and wanted to go to bed. It was hard to get her pajamas on as she was so floppy and wiggly, but as soon as she settled down it was not long before she was fast asleep.

She wore her trach cap for a total of 2 hours and 2 minutes throughout the day today.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
