Sadbh’s update – May 29th 2013


Sadbh had a restless night and seemed to be having a lot of intense dreams.
Helen had to suction once but was unable to fully clear Sadbh’s airway. Nevertheless, Sadbh had no issue breathing and she slept on for another few hours before waking up.
She woke up to the sound of her Oximeter alarm going off and as soon as she saw Katie she asked to go shopping.
Once she was unhooked from all her equipment she headed to the back door to put on her jacket, hat, glove and boots as if to head out to the shops.

Amy could not work today so Sadbh had Larissa all to herself.
Sadbh was not in the mood for a big breakfast so both she and Larissa had a very lazy morning playing with two of Sadbh’s dolls that she has named Fionn and Annabelle after her new twin cousins. Coincidentally, it turns out that her doll has her name Annabelle embroidered into her pajamas.

After a busy morning playing with her two dolls Sadbh ate some breakfast and eventually got dressed.
Sadbh and Larissa had a lot of fun running around in circles and every so often Sadbh would check in on the babies. She was wearing her cap the entire time.
Finally she got fed up and pulled the cap off.
She was soon pleading with Larissa to play with her bath toys and was making bargains about wearing her cap.
Sadbh was very happy wearing her cap and playing with bath toys until twenty minutes later she had a disagreement over soap, which ended her fun.

It all worked out fine as it was time for Sadbh bath. She was soon running around the house in the buff while Larissa got her bath set up. Sadbh loves to be naked.

When it came to her nap she tried to trick Larissa by pretending to be asleep however, she was obviously tired as she soon fell asleep.
Sadbh slept for an hour and a half and wanted to cuddle after waking up. She was very chatty but did not make a lot of sense.

She did not have much of an appetite earlier on in the day but made up for it during lunch. She ate so much food and kept asking for more.
Earlier in the day Larissa made her a treat but since she did not want it Larissa placed it in the freezer for later. Sadbh gobbled it up quickly and insisted on more. It did not matter that it was frozen.

When it came time for Larissa to leave Sadbh came running up to give her a big hug and a kiss. She managed to get a couple of hugs and kisses before Larissa finally left and Sadbh was soon running around the house playing with her dolls again.

We were playing hide and seek when Katie arrived home. Sadbh was over the moon to hear Katie’s keys at the front door and was soon scrambling to greet her.

We had to manage trach care this evening and thankfully Sadbh was very corporative.
It did not take us long and after some kisses and cuddles Sadbh was soon fast asleep.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
