sounds like a good sign that his spirits seem to be picking up a bit, even if nothing else has changed *yet* ... sounds like he knows he's in good hands now! igs totally amaze me, they seem to not want to "just" survive, they want to *thrive* ... his attitude is an important factor in the entire healing process!

have you gotten any calories into him?? maybe mix some baby food with his pedialyte to start getting his system used to food again ... (be easier to do AND easier on his system than collard mush right now ~ til you know for sure he's not obstructed ...????)

not sure about the tongue thing ... wouldn't be *too* concerned right now as long as he *can* get it in his mouth + close his mouth *if he wants to* ... (iZ does stuff like that to mess with my mind ... :) )

size ~ iZ is about 6yo now ... he's 22" svl, 5'6" stl and about 11 pounds ... someone recently posted about a 6yo male who was 6'6" and 20 pounds ... Adam is definitely stunted ... :(

*head rubs* for Adam!
and very best wishes for you both!
Bon. + iZ
