It
was a very long night as Sadbh needed constant suctioning every thirty minutes
or so.
Her
trach was extremely goopy but thankfully her temperature was back to normal.
She
slept until almost 8 and woke up happy. She could not wait to join her friends
in the kitchen for breakfast so after another few suctions she was able to join
in on the fun.
We
rented a boat for the day so after we got all her equipment set up we all
headed out for a day on the lake.
Sadbh
and all the kids had a fantastic time. After a few hours Sadbh started to show
signs of getting tired. She snuggled up to Katie and was soon fast asleep in
her arms.
Each
of the other kids started to doze off and before we knew it they were all fast
asleep.
We
headed back to the dock so Katie and I could take Sadbh home for trach care.
Sadbh woke up before we arrived at the dock and was as eager as Katie and I to
get trach care done so we could head back out on the boat with everyone else.
Trach
care went really well but Sadbh needed some serious suctioning. She actually
needed suctioning throughout the entire day and thankfully she was a great
sport about it all.
The
fun continued once we got back on the lake but Sadbh was not pleased when mommy
wanted to go for a swim in the water. I did a good job of distracting her for a
while but soon she noticed that mommy was nowhere to be seen.
This
put an end to mommies swimming activities but as soon as she was out of the
water Sadbh was much happier.
The
rest of the evening was spent playing with her friends and by the end of the
evening all the kids were wired to the moon.
Just
before bedtime we gave Sadbh another nebulizer to help loosen up the secretions
in her trach.
Bedtime
came quickly and soon Sadbh was out for the count.
All
the best,
Wayne,
Katie and Sadbh.
