Sadbh’s update – February 5th 2014


Sadbh woke up in a very happy mood this morning and she headed down to the basement to play with her toys as soon as she could.
Jenna started a couple of hours later and she brought Sadbh a hot chocolate as a treat. Sadbh was delighted with herself and almost downed it in one gulp.

The Seahawks arrived back in Seattle today from their Super Bowl win and despite the cold we headed downtown to check out the parade.
I was glad that I had bundled Sadbh up with a couple of extra layers as it was bitter cold and the breeze would go right through you.
Downtown was packed, something like 700,000 people and there was Sadbh in the middle of it all. She enjoyed it at first but soon the excitement from everyone else got to her and she wanted to go home.

The walk home was mostly all uphill with a bitter breeze head on. Sadbh enjoyed being in her stroller and loved the fact that I was practically sprinting the whole way home.

Jenna and I took care of trach care as soon as we got home and Sadbh spent the rest of the day playing and having fun. At one stage she started chanting “Sea – Hawks!” It seems that she’s turning into an American Football fan.

Dr. Inglis had his peer-to-peer call with the so-called insurance company doctor and despite his best efforts the insurance doctor upheld the decision to decline home care nursing.
We are still going to fight this decision but it is extremely disappointing that we have to go through so much to get this resolved. 
           



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
