Sadbh’s update – March 7th 2013


Sadbh tolerated 33 minutes with her trach capped during the night and according to Larissa she remained relaxed and comfortable the first couple of times.
On the third try she got a little bit fussy but still stayed asleep.

She woke up around 6:20 and was in a very good mood.
After catching up with her favorite show, Kipper, Sadbh headed downstairs with Katie for breakfast. She had a big appetite and ate her fair share of breakfast.
When Nana joined in for breakfast Sadbh ate most of her porridge. She’s quite the cheeky monkey.

Trach care was easy today as Sadbh was very tired. She slept for almost three hours and woke up in a great mood.
Unfortunately, she missed Ali-Baba as she had stopped by while Sadbh was sleeping.

Sadbh got to meet a new potential nanny this evening but she really wanted Katie all to herself. It was very difficult for Sadbh as she had not seen Katie since this morning, however, Nana and Granddad came to the rescue and distracted Sadbh long enough for Katie and I to interview the nanny.

Granddad received a new motorcycle helmet in the post today and Sadbh was over the moon when it came out of it’s packaging. She had to try it on but after a while she must have felt claustrophobic.

Sadbh had a huge appetite for dinner and after she was done with her food she came around the table to each of us and started eating form our plates. After that she topped it off with yogurt. I have no idea where she puts it all but it’s good to see such a healthy appetite.

When it came time for bed Sadbh put on a new show with her binkys. She stuck a couple between her toes and started to do the bicycle. I have a strong feeling that she will be a performer with Cirque du Soleil when she’s older.

This morning as I packed my lunch I noticed that yet another apple had a big bruise in it. Every apple that I’ve had throughout the week has had a similar bruise and then I realized it was from Sadbh bouncing the bag of apples along the ground as she helped unload the groceries earlier in the week.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
