The racing realm saw how Michael Schumacher became one of best car drivers in the world, earning a record of 91 wins and seven world titles. However, it also witnessed how Schumacher fought for his life following the severe head injuries he sustained in a tragic skiing accident in the French Alps in December 2013.
Due to the severity of his head injuries, Michael Schumacher was placed in a medically induced coma for six months. The 47-year-old German racing legend was then transferred to a highly-secured and state-of-the-art custom built suite in his Geneva estate to undergo an extensive rehabilitation program after he came out of coma on Jun. 16, 2014, Parent Herald previously reported.
Michael Schumacher's Health Condition Remains 'Difficult'
Ever since Michael Schumacher's unfortunate skiing accident, little has been known about his condition and recovery. But recently, Schumacher's longtime manager Sabine Kehm admitted that Schumi's health situation remains "so difficult."
"Michael will not disappear but at the moment the private situation is so difficult that unfortunately no insight can be given," Kehm said, as per Daily Express. "There must be understanding for this."
Kehm also added that the media blackout requested by the family will continue, stressing that the family wanted to protect their privacy. Kehm's statements came almost two years after Schumacher's skiing accident.
