jope Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Although German, not that much into F1. But the donation he made after the tsunami was extraordanary. Obviously he was really moved, which I found very impressive. So, great news. All the best to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virtualtraveller Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 Hate to say it, but the experts commenting some months ago said that basically, if he's been in a coma this long he's almost certainly going to be a vegetable. Might be a miracle but there are few precedent cases of people recovering from weeks or months in a coma. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may have been confused by coma vs medically induced coma Schumacher never slipped into a coma but was medically induced into a coma to decrease brain swelling, and the doctors operated to remove blood clots...afaik In any case lets hope for the best 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, obviously there is something left to "rehabilitate", but who can say how much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoonman Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Maybe out of the coma but is he concious, I think not and unfortunately will be a cabbage until the day he passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wooloomooloo Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 The silence from his family speaks volumes. He's breathing, but, other than that there's not a lot going on. Very sad, indeed. Live for the day, my friends, live for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicog Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I hope the press leave him and his family alone. He does not merit their snooping and papping any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
