Sadbh’s update – September 14th 2014


We decided to give Sadbh a break from capping or putting the PMV on her trach and as a result she slept like a log.
She woke up shortly after seven and was over the moon to see Mommy sitting there next to her.

She had a wonderful morning and we even put up her wigwam in the living room. Recently she has started to climb up on the wigwam and today she discovered that the window of the tent provides a very handy step. I know it’s only a matter of time before she manages to get to the top of it and will certainly find herself getting stuck up there. Just as well we are always close by.

After trach care and lunch we headed over to Green Lake for a walk. We stopped off for a quick visit with Derek and Suzie and Sadbh got to spend a while playing with Clodagh and Cormac. She really did not want to leave but she was looking tired and we hoped that she might fall asleep while we walked.
This, unfortunately, did not happen and instead we got to witness, first hand, Sadbh having an all out temper tantrum that lasted over half an hour. We have been so lucky that Sadbh does not have tantrums, and anything that comes close to a tantrum is over within a few quick minutes. Today was something else and it took a lot of patience before we were able to calm her down. By the time she was calm again she was completely wiped out and fell asleep in the stroller.

We were all exhausted for the rest of the evening and when it came time for bed it took ages to get Sadbh off to sleep.





All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh
