Sadbh’s update – May 22nd 2014


Sadbh was not as cooperative last night and gave Helen a run for her money. It was a battle of the wills however Helen was able to cap Sadbh for over five and a half hours throughout the night.
Sadbh was in a very good mood when she woke up but she did need quite a bit of suctioning. Her airway was goopy but it did not take long before I was able to clear her trach.

Sadbh had a play date with her friends Conor and Aibhin later in the morning and she could not wait until they arrived.
The three kids had a lot of fun in the back garden. Sadbh brought out some of her ponies and was good at sharing, for the most part.

When Conor and Aibhin left Sadbh was getting tired however she had no intention of taking a nap. She had worked up an appetite so it was time for lunch and for the fun and games to continue.

Later when it was time for reading Sadbh passed out in my arms. She only lasted half an hour before she was sound asleep so I decided to take a nap too.
She actually napped for over an hour and a half and when she woke up she got a big fright. I picked her up to comfort her and she ended up peeing all over me. Poor kid was totally out of it and did not laugh when I pretended that it was me who had the accident.

Sadbh was excited to see Mommy arrive home and did no fuss when we got trach care under way.
After dinner we headed out to water the vegetables and rest of the garden. Sadbh found two of the smallest strawberries in the world and brought them up to me to show them off. She ate one and decided to keep the other for breakfast. I suppose you wouldn’t want to fill up too much before bedtime.

Unfortunately Sadbh’s afternoon nap prevented her from falling asleep anywhere close to her usual bedtime and by the time Helen arrived Sadbh was still wide-awake.
