Shutting the mouth on the tongue saga for good

The specialists have been seen. The tongue has been scrutanized. And after an ordeal that began in mid March, I am happy to report that Adeline’s tongue has been given the diagnosis of Perfectly Fine and Totally Healed, with the final verdict of As Long As She Doeasn’t Try Biting It Off Again, She Should Be Fine.

Hooray and Hallelujah!

I tried getting a picture of the healed wound, but did a very poor job, as you can’t see the scar at all. But that’s probably a good thing, right?

.

Look at the middle of her tongue, then to the left of it. You can faintly see a little curved line. That’s the scar, which I must say looks much worse in person than it does in this photo, but that’s besides the point. All the matters is that it’s healed.

This photo was taken as she was in mid popsicle lick. It’s so great to see her eating one because she wants to, not because a mouth injury demands it.

Here’s to hoping ever inch of this girl stays intact from here on out, cause seeing your baby get hurt really, really sucks.
