Sadbh’s update – August 19th 2014


Sadbh had a wonderful night and woke up shortly before Helen’s shift ended. She had a good chat with Helen and was delighted when Mommy came in to take over.

Sadbh had a dentist appointment first thing so we had to hustle to get out of the house and to her appointment on time.
The dentist was happy with her teeth and Sadbh managed to snag so many stickers and cool gifts on her way out.

As soon as we got home it was time for a saline nebulizer since Sadbh’s trach was extremely goopy. I had to suction quite a bit to try and clear it but unfortunately it did not clear 100%. She was fine and it did not slow her down.
Sadbh’s suction catheters come bagged and after stocking up her cabinet she managed to find a couple of these bags. Before I could get them off her she was wearing them like socks and was running around the house laughing her head off.
She even wore them when she took a nap and any attempt to remove them was foiled.

The rest of the day was spent searching through the house for monsters and forest creatures. We had so much fun playing and I was impressed with her energy and imagination.

Katie’s cousin, Sarah and her husband Edgar, came for a visit. Sadbh was shy and wanted me to play in her tent rather than sit and chat with our guests. As usual, she eventually came around and warmed up to everyone.

Bedtime was a nightmare tonight and Sadbh would not go to sleep. She finally fell asleep around ten.





All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh
