Sadbh’s update – July 17th 2013


Sadbh had a much more peaceful and insect free night and even slept soundly throughout a big thunderstorm.
Helen tried numerous times to cap her trach but was unsuccessful each time.

Before going to bed last night Sadbh and Katie watched a video based on Eric Carle’s “Papa, Please Get the Moon for Me”. It’s about a little girl that wants the moon so her father climbs a huge ladder to get it for her. Long story short, the little girl get’s what she wants and everyone is happy.
Sadbh really enjoyed it and the first thing to come out of her mouth this morning when she woke up was “daddy got moon and I want to play with moon”.
Looks like I’m in the market for a very long ladder.

Sadbh was happy to see Larissa and Mariana this morning but even happier when Ali-Baba showed up.
They got down to some serious fun and spent the entire morning having a fantastic time.
Ali-Baba brought over a small bird house and both she and Sadbh painted it.
She already has one so she mentioned that this new one was for her cousin Fionn.
They also painted flowers and other things. It was a very arts and crafts type of a morning.

Sadbh slept for almost two hours and woke up looking for her moon again. Thanks Eric.

Sadbh and I had a great evening as we waited for mommy to arrive home. We danced and played hide and seek and both of us laughed our heads off.

As soon as mommy arrived home Sadbh was so excited. She was wearing her ladybird wings and for a moment I thought she was about to fly across the room into her arms.

Katie’s dad arrived this evening and Sadbh was so excited. After dinner we got Sadbh ready for her bath and then ready for bed. Just before we got her into a fresh nappy she asked for her potty. For the first time ever Sadbh had a pee in her potty. You would have sworn we had won the lotto with all the cheering and clapping that was going on. Sadbh had a very proud look on her face.

Trach care went well and soon afterwards Sadbh was fast asleep in mommies arms.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
