but ... here's the little bit we know as of a couple days ago..

Michael Schumacher's condition is no longer critical, his management announced in a statement.

For the first time since his skiing fall almost three weeks ago, the 45-year-old German's condition was described on Friday simply as "stable", although he remains in coma.

"Michael's family is very happy and confident with the work of the team of doctors treating Michael, and they trust them completely," said the seven time world champion's manager, Sabine Kehm.

Kehm dismissed reports of recent days suggesting the great former Ferrari and Mercedes driver might never emerge from his coma, or that if he does, he will not not recover to full health.

"Unfortunately I have to repeat that any information regarding Michael's health not coming from the doctors treating him or from his management must be treated as pure speculation," she said.

I used to be religious about it as well. It's not as easy to do on an ipad as a PC tho and I'm woefully behind on reps.

So it's not a medical induced coma? Dang, its so weird that a guy that drives and makes decisions at super human levels gets into an accident like this.

as far as i know, its a medically induced coma yes. to prevent/lessen swelling in the brain and further damage.

IMO - Not really that surprised. His "super human levels" was driving a high performance car, here he was a middle age guy on a difficult section of the mountain when he crashed skiing. If you ski or snowboard (I do) you will know it is far more dangerous to be doing 120+km/hour down a hill then racing on a track much easier to slip up or have something unexpected come up on you on the hill. On a race track the roads are perfectly paved and they train on the course for countless laps before the big show/challenge. I fell a lot safer in my car at high speeds then I do on my snowboard going balls to the wall/flat out down some hills. But then again that is part of the fun having the rush of just flying down the hill and the adrenaline pumping the whole way down!

I know that's right. Anything can go bad at any time.. cars are designed to protect the driver in a crash.. snowboards aren't.
