If it's any help to some of the earlier posts, I, with no connections whatsoever to anyone connected with Barbaro, am pretty sure I read in at least one article that it was possible some screws would have to be replaced along the way because they might get bent. I can't back it up without a lot of google research, as I frantically read every article I could find on Barbaro in those first weeks and they all kind of run together now in my head, but when I read this recent article my initial reaction to the bent screws/new screws thing was "Oh yeah; they said they might have to do that."
And yes, any surgery carries with it the possibility of infection and infection can kill. So let's hope those antibiotics keep doing their job... get well soon, Barbaro, and did you see the note I wrote you on the get well card at Belmont? Oh right. You can't read. Never mind.
