Michael Schumacher 'Critical' after Skiing Accident
- Thread starter scorp965
- Start date
Being who he is, they would only announce good news so, it doesn't look good:frown: even they are able to keep him alive.
Thursday morning here and breaking news this morning is they are starting to wake him up slowly from his coma, here's hoping that the next few days are positive for him.
^^^^ Amen to that. After watching the State of the Union adddress conclusion, we can hope his recovery is like the Sargeants. Perhaps never the same, but always fighting to get better.

I'm surprised no one had updated this thread as news of him coming out of a coma was yesterday afternoon. I'm hoping he's able to make a full recovery.

He's out of the coma and transferred to rehab. He must have been out for a little while if he's left the hospital already.

Schumacher Could Use A Mouth-Controlled Wheelchair In A "Few Weeks"
The latest report about Michael Schumacher's recovery has the seven-time F1 champ communicating with his family by blinking, and possibly returning home this summer where he may be capable of using a mouth-controlled wheelchair.
Schumacher, who was involved in a skiing accident last December, spent several months in a coma, and is still rehabilitating in Lausanne, Switzerland. According to a report by FoxSports, he's been communicating with his family by "fluttering his eyelashes" and doctors at the hospital are hoping that he could use a mouth-controlled wheelchair "within a few weeks."
Schumacher's wife Corinna set up a medical center at their home in anticipation of his return, and recently wrote a letter to fans thanking them for their support and saying that the "hardest time" is over.

Sounds as if he has some pretty significant damage. Hopefully he will rehab to a fair quality of life.
Local press around here said he's in a nice private clinic. Not much more info other than his recovery will take a lot of time, and he will never fully regain his functions. That will take a lot of courage and patience from his family and himself.
HIs wife is going to sell the private jet since he won't "need" it..... now he really is going to wake up...
The fact that he survived at all is a miracle, here's hoping he achieves some 'normalcy" for his and his families sake.

Michael Schumacher's manager said medical documents purported to be Schumacher's were being offered for sale to some media.
An air ambulance employee who was arrested in connection with the suspected theft of former Formula One champion Michael Schumacher's medical records was found dead in his cell on Wednesday, prosecutors said.
The man, whose name wasn't released, was found hanged in a Zurich police jail on Wednesday morning as officers were handing out breakfast, prosecutors said in a statement. Initial investigations indicated that no one else was involved, they said.
The air ambulance service, Rega, arranged the seven-time F1 champion's transfer in June from a hospital in France to a hospital in Lausanne, Switzerland, to continue his recovery from a Dec. 29 skiing accident.
A week later, Schumacher's manager said medical documents purported to be Schumacher's were being offered for sale to some media. Swiss prosecutors opened an investigation into suspected violation of professional secrecy after Rega and Schumacher's family filed criminal complaints.
The investigation led prosecutors to the Rega employee, who was arrested on Tuesday. He denied wrongdoing in questioning by police, and prosecutors had planned to question him further.
Prosecutors said they currently have no evidence of further suspects and likely will close the case.
"This tragic event leaves us sad and speechless," Rega chief executive Ernst Kohler said, adding that the company is offering support to the man's relatives.
Rega has said it organized Schumacher's transfer to Lausanne and, as part of that, was given a medical report by the Grenoble hospital where he had been treated since his accident.
Schumacher's accident happened on a family vacation as he was skiing with his 14-year-old son at the Meribel ski resort in the French Alps. He hit the right side of his head on a rock, cracking his helmet. Doctors operated to remove blood clots from his brain, but some were left because they were too deeply embedded.
Schumacher's condition stabilized after he was placed in a drug-induced coma, from which he has since emerged.

The things people will do for money. Getting caught isn't worth taking your own life though.
