Another good night for Sadbh
although Helen could hear that Sadbh was breathing through her nose and that
her trach seemed somewhat blocked. She suctioned and cleared her airway and
Sadbh slept even better for the rest of the night.
She had a very busy morning
with Larissa, Mariana and Ali-Baba.
We had her trach change
scheduled for this weekend and based on Helens report this morning we decided
to take care of it today.
Both Katie and I arrived
home early from work and with the help of Larissa and Mariana we were able to
get Sadbh set up and ready for trach change.
With Larissa holding Sadbh’s
iPad, Katie and I set about going through the trach care process. When it came
time to change her trach Sadbh was a complete superstar. She held her neck back
fully allowing Katie to remove her old trach and allowing me to put in the new
one. She did not even cough.
Mariana video recorded the
whole thing and commented afterwards how we all looked very stressed throughout
and once we were done we all looked very relieved.
Later in the evening Katie
and I treated Sadbh to some frozen yogurt downtown. She was so excited to be
downtown and could not help but dance when she came across a couple of buskers
performing. The buskers were great but Sadbh stole all the attention from
everyone who passed by. It’s too funny how she dances like her mammy.
She got to bed a little
later than usual tonight and thankfully was asleep just before Danielle
arrived.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
