Awake doesn't mean functional though. Not to sound pessimistic, but from the information they've released the chances of him having any real recovery seem to be slim at best.

heres a fresh story about it that one was from june

...wtfux?? Must've copied the wrong link.

Anyhoo, yes.

Hope he's able to get some semblance of his life back. *nods*

i honestly wouldnt expect much. it will be a miracle if he learns to walk again on his own.

Yeah; I'm not expecting him to wind up on "Dancing With The Stars" any time soon, but I hope he's able to at least re-learn enough motor control to get around normally.

"But it is not clear what Schumacher's condition is and his process of recovery is still expected to be a long one, she adds.

Monday's statement was the first substantial update since early April when Ms Kehm said the German racing driver was showing "moments of consciousness and awakening.""


First thing that comes to mind is Terri Schiavo.
