Sadbh’s update – May 30th 2014


Sadbh managed only 4 hours last night and it was quite the effort. She woke up shortly before eight and was still very sleepy.

We had an appointment with Sadbh’s cranial sacral doctor, Dr. Cavanaugh, this morning and Sadbh was very cooperative.  
He could tell that her diaphragm was compressed from having to work harder to breathe so he focused on releasing that along with the muscles around her neck and her vocal cords.

Sadbh and I had a wonderful day and after her doctors visit we headed to the playground down by Garfield High School. Sadbh is getting so much better on the monkey bars and all the other activities on the playground.

She was wiped out by the time we got home and fell into a nice deep sleep after a bath. She slept for over an hour and a half with her trach cap on.

Later in the evening we headed over to Wallingford to meet up with some friends for a picnic. Sadbh was thrilled to get to play with Clodagh, Cormac, Ixchel and Aidan.

Bedtime was not so easy and it took Sadbh forever to get to sleep. She finally fell asleep almost half an hour after Danielle arrived and it was just in time as I was running out of things to say to Danielle.





All the best,

Wayne, Katie and Sadbh.
