Sadbh’s update – September 26th 2013


Sadbh had another sleep in but woke up a little earlier than she has for the past few days.

She was very excited to see Jenna when she arrived and could not wait to start her day’s fun activities. So much so that she was not as upset when Mommy left for work.

After breakfast we bundled up and headed up to the campus at Seattle U and then on through Capitol hill. First to check out the construction site across from the college and then on to Cal Anderson Park.
Sadbh loved the large fountain and watched a couple of small kids running in the water.
We even bumped into our neighbor Charlie and her daddy who were also out for a walk.
On the way home we bumped into Marianna, Sadbh’s old nanny.

When we arrived home Sadbh had a light snack and as soon as her belly was full we gave her a bath and managed trach care.
Jenna used to care for children with trachs at Children’s Hospital and has plenty of experience with trach care. Our technique is a little bit more thorough. She was eager to learn and when she saw Sadbh’s stoma site she was impressed on how great it looked.

Once we finished trach care I put Sadbh down for her nap and hoped that she would fall asleep quickly. We were certain that she would since she was extremely tired however it was not going to happen and within half an hour Sadbh was dressed and out reading books in the living room.

The rest of the day was spent playing and having fun. She was definitely loopy when Mommy arrived home. 
Thankfully she was so tired that it did not take any time to get her off to sleep.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
