Sadbh’s update – February 2, 2015


Sadbh had a much better night and woke up not long after seven.
We had Sadbh’s cranial sacral appointment first thing so it was all systems go.

Her appointment went well and Dr. Cavanaugh was able to relieve the tightness along her ribcage caused by the extra work she has to perform to breathe.
We also had an appointment for Cillian and Sadbh was very well behaved while we waited for Dr. Cavanaugh to work his magic on Cillian.

Once home Sadbh had a bath and then it was time for trach care. She loves her baths and if she got her way she would spend hours in there.

The sun eventually came out so we decided to get out for a walk and to get some fresh air. Before we left Sadbh got to chat with Nana and Granddad and she told them all about the great things that she was baking in her toy oven. They were about to go to sleep so Sadbh told them to have a good night and to dream about her.

It was so good to get out of the house especially since Sadbh was starting to become difficult.
Shortly after leaving the house she got very upset because we forgot to bring her snacks to eat and she only calmed down after Katie removed her trach cap and agreed to check with Sadbh to see if she wants snacks on her next trip.
Some days are better than others but today she and I knocked heads over and over.
It can be extremely challenging and by the end of the day both of us are exhausted.





All the best,

Wayne, Katie, Sadbh and Cillian
