Sadbh’s update – May 10th, 2012


Sadbh had yet another great night sleep and did not wake up until almost 6am. Once she was awake, she insisted on showing Larissa all her toys. This meant that Larissa had to bring Sadbh out into the living room to play with all her toys.

Sadbh had a small breakfast and went back to sleep until after 8am.

She had a fun morning and after breakfast, it was time to play with her dolls and other toys again.

Nadia was working with Sadbh today and she taught Sadbh how to climb off the couch.
Basically she explained how to do it and showed her one time.
Sadbh figured it out and showed off how good she was throughout the day. It blew us all away how sharp and how quick she is to learn.

After a fun morning of playing and learning, it was finally time for trach care. Sadbh was fast asleep and allowed Nini and Nadia to manage everything quite easily.
She slept for another hour or so, and then it was time to fill her belly.

When it came time to practice on her Passy Muir Valve, Nini and Nadia took Sadbh out into the back garden to play on her bike as a distraction. Sadbh did ok, but kept pulling her PMV off every chance she got.

Later in the day, all three ladies went for a nice long walk, and Sadbh had a fantastic time.

Shortly after arriving home, Sadbh showed off her walking skills and at one point she took at least 10 steps towards me. It was very impressive and Sadbh even seemed impressed with herself.

She is one smart cookie and we are so very lucky.




All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
