The battle for Michael
Schumacher's coma recovery has apparently entered a new phase with him
being moved out of intensive care into a rehabilitation ward. If true, it means
that Schumacher, 45, is out of danger from dying from his injuries - but the
level of progress he has made remains questionable.
It comes four months after doctors announced they would
begin the process of awaking him from the artificially induced coma he was
placed in following a ski accident in the French Alps on December 19 last
year. However, experts say if he was going to wake up, he would have done so by now.
year. However, experts say if he was going to wake up, he would have done so by now.
Medical sources always said that there would come a point
when doctors would have to inform his wife Corinna,
brother Ralf and father Rolf that there is nothing more they
can do for him on the emergency station.
A rehab ward means he will still receive the same massage
therapy and muscle toning that he has been getting daily but that doctors no
longer expect significant improvements - certainly in the short term in his
condition.
'Schumacher's transfer
to a special rehabilitation clinic is being prepared and the chances of full
recovery have dropped,' said Bunte.
Schumacher's manager Sabine
Kehm has not responded to the latest report in Germany's popular weekly
magazine Bunte.
With an accumulated wealth estimated to be well over
half-a-billion pounds, Schumacher's family is well placed to provide the
limitless care that will be needed in the coming years. This will include
physiotherapists, to massage his atrophying joints, doctors, nutritionists, nurses
and neurological experts.
Corinna knows it
is the least she can do for the man she described as the 'perfect partner.' She and Schumacher met in 1991 on the F1 circuit
after she was previously married to racing driver Heinz-Harald Frentzen.
She once said: 'Michael's
passion for racing is just huge, it would have been impossible without this
deep passion; this passion has made him, who he is. I got to know him as a
racer, and I had previously always had fullest confidence in him.'
