Sadbh’s update – August 24th 2013


Danielle was able to cap Sadbh’s trach for thirty minutes before Sadbh could not tolerate it any further.
I took over at six when Danielle left and twenty minutes later I could hear Sadbh crying in her sleep. She was very upset and eventually woke herself up.
After disconnecting all her equipment we headed upstairs to mommy and soon Sadbh was very happy.

Katie found a replacement dining table and set of chairs for the house in a vintage store in Olympia. Sadbh was very excited to go for the spin and after half an hour she was fast asleep. As we exited the freeway Sadbh woke up and started laughing hysterically at a tree on the side of the road. We have no idea what as so funny but whatever it was Sadbh thought it was the best thing ever.

There was a sand sculpture festival in town so we took a detour to check it out. Sadbh really enjoyed the festival and she got busy dancing in front of the live band on the stage. The sand sculptures were incredible and we had to hold Sadbh back a few times as she wanted to go in to touch them.

Sadbh had her first ever taste of Coke today and she was hooked. She could not get enough. Thankfully it’s very rare that we drink sugary soft drinks.

She had a fun filled evening and she was so energetic when it came time for bed.
After a nice relaxing bath it was time for trach care and then she was off to sleep.
I hope she does not have any bad dreams tonight.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
