He actually still uses wax to close up what's left of the hole in his palate - there was never enough material to finish closing it. He's also relearned to talk so many times after surgeries that he can pronounce all kinds of weird words.<br />Anyhoo, we were having sushi some time after his now-you-can-use-your-nose surgery and he had a similar wasabi incident. He had NEVER felt the heat because it requires your sinuses to function. And now they did. He piled up a giant heap of wasabi on his first roll. It was hilarious, actually. Sadly, now he's too scared of wasabi to eat sushi!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
