Two Weeks Later Michael Schumacher Still Not Responding To Stimuli

That is the news of the German daily Bild-Zeitung, reporting that while the seven time world champion has often presented reflex twitches since the anaesthetic was reduced, Schumacher is still not responding to deliberate stimuli.

However, Bild said the former Mercedes and Ferrari driver’s wife Corinna – who is at his bedside on a daily basis – is following the doctors’ advice by continually talking to the 45-year-old, as there is evidence it can help a patient in Schumacher’s condition.

A reminder to ski/snowboard with helmet on. Sadly, Michael was wearing a helmet, so I can only imagine what would have happened if he did not when he struck his head on the rock. It's too bad that photo shows he's not wearing a helmet - it sends the wrong message to kids that it's OK not to wear one.

This is really horrible. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

F1 has been made so much safer, but skiing remains a dangerous sport.

Schumacher's future isn't sounding too bright.

This is not great to hear, regardless if the individual is an F1 champ or not.

Hope something changes soon.
