Sadbh slept great for the first few hours with her
trach cap on but became restless around one in the morning. Jirapa was keeping
a close eye on her and when she felt that Sadbh was struggling slightly she
removed the trach cap to relieve the pressure. Sadbh slept like a log for the
rest of the night.
Our friends, Hailey and Martin, were coming by for
dinner today and Sadbh was so excited to get to hang out with their three kids,
Ronan, Aoife and Oisin.
Katie and I managed to get trach care done just
before our guests arrived and as soon as Sadbh was dressed she headed out into
the back yard with her friends to show them her house. The kids had a wonderful
time but unfortunately Katie and I let our guard down and did not remind Sadbh
not to play in the dirt. Before long she was covered from head to toe in dust so
we had to give her a bath but thankfully we did not have to do trach care
again. It was a close call but it all worked out in the end.
The kids had a great time together but when it came
time for them to leave Sadbh was not happy. She was extremely tired and was
very disappointed that her friends were leaving. She must have cried for almost
an hour afterwards. It was a struggle to get her changed and into bed but as
soon as her head hit the pillow she was out like a light.
We don’t have a nurse tonight so I will leave her
trach capped until I go to bed.
All
the best,
Wayne, Katie, Sadbh and Cillian
