Sadbh’s update – April 4th 2013


Sadbh woke up from what seemed to be a bad dream last night and asked Larissa to cuddle her, “blanket sit” were the words used. The rest of her night was very restless however her heart rate was quite relaxed and stable.

She finally woke up just before 7 and was happy to see Katie.
Amy arrived an hour later and she prepared a nice big breakfast for Sadbh.

The weather had turned bad so Sadbh ended up staying indoors all day. She had a lot of fun playing with her grandparents and Amy.
At one point she wanted to play with Nana’s needlepoint and she had to have Nana’s glasses on. Unfortunately for Nana, Sadbh accidentally broke her glasses.

Trach care went well today as Sadbh was very tired and after a nice cuddle with Granddad she was out like a light.
She slept for almost three hours and as soon as she woke up she could not get out of her cot fast enough. She was eager to get the fun and games going again and was in a fantastic mood.

She had my parents in hysterics when she grabbed her pink purse and turned to my parents and said “good luck lads”.  She’s definitely very Irish.

Sadbh’s other grandfather, Poppy, arrived from San Francisco tonight and Sadbh was shy for about five minutes.
She soon entertained him by singing a few of her favorite songs and soon she had everyone joining in.

Sadbh did not want to go to bed and poor Katie had to work very hard to finally get her to sleep.
Tonight is Larissa’s last night shift as she will be moving to day shifts after a week’s vacation.
Hopefully Sadbh will have a much better night tonight but it is good to know that if she wakes up that Larissa is there to look after her.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
