Sadbh’s update – April 22nd 2014


Sadbh experienced some discomfort with her pulse ox probe shortly after two in the morning and sat up and pulled it off her foot. After she fell back to sleep Helen reattached it in a different spot and she slept soundly for a couple more hours.
Around 4 she woke up very upset and wanted Mommy. Helen was able to get her back to sleep where she slept until almost 9.

Sadbh had a nice big breakfast and spent the morning playing and burning off a lot of energy. When it came time for trach care Sadbh did not want to take a bath. As soon as we got her into it she did not want to get out. You could tell that she was very tired and as soon as I got her dried off she snuggled up and wanted to go to sleep.

Trach care went well and Sadbh jumped into her bed as soon as we finished up. She slept for almost three hours and had her trach cap on for twenty minutes of that.

In the afternoon Sadbh picked out ten of her favorite books and we sat and read until Mommy acme home from work.
Sadbh ran out to the dining room and hid under the table to surprise Mommy when she walked through the door. It worked too, well kind of as Mommy could see Sadbh as she came up the back steps.

Before bedtime Sadbh wanted Nana and Granddad to sit and watch her favorite video, Billy La Bufanda (Billy the scarf). She even started to plan out her day for tomorrow and asked that we pretend that the rug in the living room is ice and that she plans to walk through with her scarf so it can fall down. She also wants me to clean her wellies (rubber boots) so she can include them in her play tomorrow.

We tried putting her to sleep tonight with her trach cap and after a while she asked to have it taken off. As soon as Katie removed the cap Sadbh dropped off to sleep very quickly.





All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
