Sadbh’s update – April 2nd 2013


Larissa was working again last night so Sadbh had some quality time with her trach cap. She did great considering that she had not been capped while she slept since Thursday night. She tolerated it for two hours and twenty minutes over two sessions.
She was so relaxed that Larissa had to keep checking to make sure that the cap was still in place.

Sadbh must have been very tired as she slept soundly until almost 7am. Katie had taken over from Larissa and Sadbh was very happy to see her when she woke up.
After a nice big snuggle they both headed upstairs so Katie could get ready for work and Sadbh could catch up with her favorite shows.

Sadbh had a great big breakfast and afterwards she got some good playtime with Amy.
It was a cloudy but pleasant day so they all headed out for a walk. There are so many kids parks within a mile or two of our house and today they headed to Powell Barnett Park. There is a huge kids play area with a kid’s fire engine that Sadbh could not get enough of. She had a fantastic time and got to use up a lot of energy.

Trach care went well and Sadbh slept for two and a half hours afterwards.
As soon as she woke up she was ready to get back to having fun and could not wait to play with her toys.
She did not want to eat but after quite a bit of convincing she finally gave in and had a big dinner.

She had a great evening and when it came time for bed she kept talking about her birthday. When Katie asked what type of cake she would like she responded by saying “yellow”, only to change her mind a minute later by asking for a “red then “pink” cake.  Oh, and she also wants yellow ice cream.

Bedtime was a bit of an effort as she kept rotating between three binkies. She refused to allow me to put her into her bed and after forty minutes the both of us nodded off to sleep.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
