Sadbh’s update – July 15th 2013


Sadbh slept soundly last night but would not allow Helen to cap her trach. She tried once and Sadbh pulled it off without waking up. She was so quick that Helen decided not to try it a second time for fear of waking her up.

When she did wake up, shortly after 7, she was in a fantastic mood.   The first thing she said to Katie was “I was in your belly” and she laughed.  Katie confirmed this and asked her what she had been doing in there to which Sadbh said “I trying to get out”.

Larissa and Mariana both worked today and when they arrived at 8:30 Sadbh was happy to see them.

She had an appointment with Dr. Cavanaugh, her cranial sacral doctor and it went very well. She was in a very good mood and allowed Dr. Cavanaugh to work his magic without any problems.

When they arrived home Sadbh, Larissa and Mariana headed off for a walk. They went to check out the chickens down the street and after that they came across a guy working with a tractor. Sadbh was fascinated so they stood there watching for quite a while.

She did not sleep long during naptime but was in a good mood for the afternoon.

After dinner Sadbh, mommy and I headed out for a walk and Sadbh brought along her trike. She has started to figure out how to use the peddles but more often than not she uses her feet to push herself along since it seems to be easier.
She had a fun time especially when going downhill.

As we arrived home a plane flew overhead and Sadbh stopped to wave and started to say “goodbye Nini, goodbye Granddad” and then proceeded to blow kisses at the plane.

We managed trach care just before bedtime and thankfully everything went well. She fell asleep quickly this evening since she was pooped.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
