The tenth anniversary of Michael Schumacherâs terrible skiing tragedy was December 29.
The seven-time Formula 1 world champion continues to have significant aftereffects that impair his ability to move and speak.
Shortly after retiring from Formula 1 racing, Schumacher suffered a severe fall while skiing during his familyâs vacation in MĂŠribel, Savoie, on December 29, 2013, exactly 10 years ago.
The force of the crash caused his helmet to crack as his head struck a rock.
Schumacher, often referred to as âThe Red Baron,â was stunned but conscious when rescuers came.
He was sent to the hospital right away, where he spent several months in a coma.
The former champion âsuffered severe head trauma with coma upon arrival, requiring immediate neurosurgical intervention,â according to a statement released by Grenoble University Hospital the same evening.
Schumacherâs life was in jeopardy due to a brain hemorrhage as well.
Six months later, when he awoke, nothing had changed.
Due to Michael Schumacherâs familyâs utmost discretion, it is still difficult to determine his current condition.
They do not disclose any information about him to the media and keep him out of the spotlight.
The world champion of Formula 1 can no longer stand or walk, and he can no longer speak to others around him.
About 15 doctors, nurses, and physiotherapists work around the clock to care for Michael Schumacher.
The disaster that happened to Michael Schumacher when he was skiing in the French Alps resort of MĂŠribel happened ten years ago.
He has been residing in a hospital suite in his familyâs Gland, Switzerland, property since September 2014.
âHe is a prisoner of his own body,â observed GaĂŤtan Vigneron, a 30-year veteran of Formula One commentary and a racing scene expert.
The Daily Mail carried information that Michaelâs younger brother Ralf shared with the local media: âI miss the Michael of old.â
Sometimes life is so unfair. Throughout his life, Michael has been quite fortunate.
