Sadbh’s update – May 15th 2014



Sadbh fell asleep with her trach cap and lasted for just over two hours. Helen tried again a few hours later and she tolerated it for another two hours. She was definitely working very hard to get air however her sats were perfect all night. Helen noticed that Sadbh’s lungs contained a lot of secretions and determined that Sadbh might have some respiratory issue going on that is causing her to have to work harder to maintain.

She woke up just before Helen’s shift ended and she was in a very good mood. Unfortunately, her good mood did not last long and both of us had a challenging day.

By the time Mommy arrived home from work Sadbh and I were in a much better mood. We got trach care out of the way as soon as possible and in the evening Sadbh pretended to be a fairy with wings and I helped her fly a few laps around the house.

She was very tired when it came time for bed and fell asleep snuggled up to Mommy after a short while. Unfortunately she did not want her cap on, however Katie was able to slip it on as soon as she fell asleep.






All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
