Sadbh had a much better night, thanks to the
medicine.
The medicine however has its downsides. The steroids
tend to make you very irritable, aggressive and very difficult to please. The
Albuterol amps you up, makes you hyper and gives you so much energy. The two of these combined in a 5 yr old is a
recipe for trouble.
All day long Sadbh was bouncing off the walls
and going through severe mood swings.
It was extremely difficult for Katie and I to
deal with and to maintain our patience.
We tried on numerous occasions to get her to
take a nap but it was impossible due to the Albuterol.
We even went for a walk around Green Lake with
Sadbh in the stroller in the hopes that she would pass out, unfortunately this
did not yield the desired results.
Bedtime was quick and after one last inhaler of
Albuterol she passed out from sheer exhaustion.
All the best,
Wayne, Katie, Sadbh and Cillian
