Sadbh’s update – December 27th 2012



Julie worked last night and Sadbh had a great night sleep as a result. She needed to be suctioned only once during the night and it allowed her to have a very comfortable night.
Katie and I capped Sadbh’s trach for five minutes an hour after she fell asleep. Her blood oxygen level dipped slightly to 97% but her heart rate increased from 110 to 125 as she worked harder to breath.
Julie’s shift ended at 6 and Sadbh continued to sleep until 7:30. She was in a great mood but wanted to head upstairs to see mummy.

Sadbh had a very busy morning playing with her toys. She was exhausted when it came time for her nap and she slept right through trach care.
Unfortunately, she only slept for 45 minutes and woke very tired. We both took turns trying to get her back to sleep but she wanted to get up and to get back to having fun.

Sadbh was in for a treat today as two of her cousins were arriving from Portland with her grandfather for the weekend.
We headed down to the train station to greet them and Sadbh was excited to see them as soon as they came through the doors.

Sadbh had a wonderful evening and her two cousins, Hayato and Kaito, really took great care of her.
It was a very special evening and you could see that Sadbh was so happy to have such great friends.

When it came for bed, Sadbh was wrecked tired, so it did not take long for her to fall asleep. She had a lovely snuggle with Katie and before she knew it she was off to la-la land.



All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
