They have publicly mentioned plans to change the cast. I don't remember anyone saying "after 2 months we are going to open up the leg and put a couple more screws in".
And "technically surgery"? What's just "technical" about it? They not only replaced screws but they added 2-3 new ones. That sounds like full-blown surgery to me. And it suggests to me that something wasn't lining up the way they'd hoped.
It would have been an excellent time, however, for the spokesperson to say that the additional surgery was not unexpected.
I hope I'm wrong.

If you don't believe where I got my information from that they were always going to do it, read the drf article i posted. As for "techinically" surgery, read the article too. It explains what I meant. "All this surgery was done under fluoroscopic control, using little, small incisions, so it wasn't like you were opening the leg back up or anything," Richardson said. "These were done through one-centimeter incisions, so tiny incisions." The media was just a day or two behind the information that the people connected to the horse and New Bolton already knew.
