Sadbh’s update – August 23rd 2013


Sadbh slept right through the night and woke up in a great mood.
She had an appointment with Dr. Cavanaugh so off she went with mommy and Larissa.
Dr. Cavanaugh spent a lot of time working on her face and head and at one point Sadbh called out to Katie and said, “Mommy, I want to do something” but she just laid there and let the doctor work his magic. She was very calm even though she was not entirely enjoying the experience.

It was hard saying goodbye to mommy when they got home and Larissa had to create some serious distractions to keep her from getting too sad.

All in all she had a very fun day with Larissa and when I arrived home I found Sadbh hiding behind the shower curtain. She really enjoys trying to surprise me when I get home but in her excitement she always makes way too much noise.

Larissa and I were able to manage trach care before her shift ended. Sadbh was a good sport and made it very easy for us. Her trach still has a slight odor but it’s not as bad as it was a couple of days ago.

Uncle Neil stopped by this evening, as Sadbh was getting ready for bed. She was delighted to see him and showed off how good she is at brushing her teeth.

As Katie was putting Sadbh to sleep she explained that when her vocal cords start to work we will be able to go on holidays to Ireland and even Hawaii. Sadbh then asked if uncle Neil could come with us.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
