Sadbh’s update – August 25th 2013


Sadbh did great having her trach capped last night and tolerated it for an hour.  She was very restless during the entire time, however. She woke up around 1am and she and Danielle has a conversation for a few minutes.  When Danielle asked her if she thought it was time to go back to sleep Sadbh said “yes” and rolled over and went straight back to sleep.

By 6:40 she was wide-awake and very happy to see mommy sitting by her cot.
It was a beautiful morning so Sadbh got to spend most of it in the garden playing with her toys,
She was very busy making breakfast and cupcakes.
We tried to Skype with Nana and Granddad but unfortunately my parents were having technical issues so Sadbh did not get a chance to see them. She was very disappointed and kept asking to see them.

Katie’s friend Michelle stopped by and Sadbh was very happy to see her.
They got to spend some time hanging out in the sunshine before it was time for trach care and a nap.
Sadbh was very tired so it did not take long to get her to sleep after Katie and I finished up trach care.

She slept for a couple of hours and woke up looking for mommy. Katie and Michelle had gone out for a walk so Sadbh was very upset that she was not there for a snuggle.
I was able to calm her down and soon we were cuddling in the armchair reading books.

When mommy arrived home we headed down to Flying Squirrel pizza for something to eat and Michelle’s partner Ken joined us.
Sadbh was very shy at first but soon warmed up.

There was a family at the next table with a young snotty nosed little boy who kept coming over to play with Sadbh.
Both Katie and I were very much on the defensive trying our best to keep him as far away as possible. We felt bad as he was a friendly little guy but we cannot afford for Sadbh to get sick.
Thankfully his father could see that Sadbh had a trach and he also did his best to keep his son far enough away.

After we got home Sadbh had Katie and I sitting on the floor under the new dining table eating some breakfast that she prepared. She had quite the set up and was very busy making sure that we had plenty to eat.





All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
