Sadbh
had a very restless night and woke up in a good mood close to 7am this morning.
She
had an appointment with her cranial sacral doctor, Dr. Cavanaugh first thing
this morning so it was a mad rush to have breakfast and get ready for her
visit.
This
was the first Dr. Cavanaugh visit without Mommy and Sadbh was not so keen. It
took a lot of talking to get her to cooperate.
Dr.
Cavanaugh noticed that her upper muscles were not as tense as previous visits
and mentioned that it seemed that she was not working so hard to breathe.
It
was a cool but pleasant day so we headed out for a walk as soon as we got home.
Sadbh was happy to be out since she’s been cooped up all week. We headed to
Nora’s Woods and it was such a great walk. Sadbh enjoyed her hike and by the
time we arrived home she was getting very tired.
Trach
care went well but Sadbh would not go to sleep. She fought us hard for almost
two hours and we finally gave in.
Caity,
her nurse supervisor, came by to recertify Sadbh and Sadbh was so excited to
see her. She showed off her new tent and kept giving Caity hugs.
Sadbh
was very excited as her friend Clodagh was coming over for a sleep over. It was
Sadbh’s first ever sleep over and she could not stop talking about it all day.
Clodagh
arrived around 4 with her little brother Cormac and Sadbh almost crashed
through the window when she saw them arrive outside.
Clodagh
was also quite excited and had packed her suitcase the evening before all by
herself.
Needless
to say the three kids had a fantastic evening. I was surprised with how crazy
the house was all of a sudden but the kids were having such a wonderful time I
could not help but join in.
After
Katie arrived home the kids got busy baking cookies.
They
obviously did not need the sugar but it kept them going well past their
bedtime.
It
took a while to get everyone to bed but soon the house was quiet and we were
able to relax for a while.
All
the best,
Wayne,
Katie and Sadbh.
