Sadbh’s update – August 22nd 2013


Helen was unsuccessful in capping Sadbh’s trach, however she slept like a log and woke up very happy this morning.

We are making a big effort to get Sadbh potty trained and Larissa broke out the reward stickers for every time she used her potty.
She made a valiant effort at one stage by pulling off her nappy and sitting for a while. Unfortunately she did not pee.

Larissa decided to leave the nappy off and Sadbh enjoyed the freedom as she ran about the house.
After breakfast when they headed out into the back garden Sadbh would not allow Larissa to put the nappy back on. She was having so much fun outside and did not want to go back in so she let loose with a big stream right in the grass. She had a look of shock and surprise on her face, which made it that much better.

She had a very short nap today and was wired to the moon. She had a great time devouring a bowl of blueberries and made a huge mess.
When it came time for trach care she calmed down to allow us to get the job done.

Bedtime was easy since she was so tired. Hopefully she will have another good night tonight.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
