Sadbh’s update – March 9th 2013


Sadbh slept well and Julie was able to cap her trach a couple of times. The first time she lasted for 19 minutes but got very restless so she switched it back. The second time she lasted almost 15 minutes but slept better.
Shortly after 6 Sadbh was wide awake and ready for Katie.

After unhooking all her equipment we headed up to Katie and Sadbh was thrilled to snuggle with her.
She was so much fun and very playful as we hung out in bed for another hour or so.

Sadbh was in for a big treat today as her friend Clodagh was celebrating her 4th birthday. There was even a band playing and Sadbh was dancing like a rock star. She had a wonderful time with all her friends and did a great job keeping up with everyone.
Both Katie and I kept our eyes peeled for other kids with colds or coughs and kept Sadbh clear from any possible germs as much as we could.
It sucks having to be like this but since Sadbh is so susceptible to colds and infections we have no other choice.

All the excitement of the morning’s events wiped Sadbh out and she was ready for her nap when we arrived home. Bath time was fun and Sadbh really enjoyed splashing up the place.
Trach care went well but Sadbh only slept for 25 minutes. She was a little sluggish when she woke up but as soon as Katie arrived on the scene she quickly perked up.

Before lunch she got to see our next-door neighbor, Anna, and her dog. Sadbh could not stop rubbing Caushie’s head and ears and you could tell that Caushie really enjoyed it.

Katie and I had a Guild meeting for Children’s Hospital this evening so Nana and Granddad watched Sadbh and put her to bed.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
