SCHUMACHER IN COMA AFTER SKIING ACCIDENT
Michael Schumacher was reported to be in a coma in hospital on Sunday night after striking his head on a rock while skiing in the French Alps. The retired seven-times Formula One racing champion was initially said to have escaped without a life threatening injury but French media later reported that he had suffered a cerebral haemorrhage and that his condition had dramatically worsened. According to the hospital, Schumacher, 44 was in a coma when he arrived at the hospital on Sunday afternoon. Eminent French orthopaedic and trauma surgeon Gerard Saillant flew from Paris to Grenoble to take charge of his treatment. The German motorsports legend fell on Sunday while skiing off-piste with his 14-year-old son and friends at Meribel, where he owns a chalet. He was due to celebrate his 45th birthday on Friday.
