December 29th marked the tenth anniversary of Michael Schumacher’s tragic skiing accident.
The seven-time Formula 1 world champion is still suffering from severe after-effects that leave him unable to communicate and move.
Exactly ten years ago, on December 29th 2013, the accident occurred when Schumacher took a violent fall while skiing during his family vacation in Méribel in Savoie, shortly after retiring from Formula 1 racing.
His head hit a rock and his helmet shattered under the force of the impact.
When rescuers arrived, Schumacher, also known as “The Red Baron,” was stunned but conscious.
He was immediately taken to hospital, where he remained in a coma for several months.
On the evening of the same day, Grenoble University Hospital announced that the former champion had “suffered severe head trauma with coma upon arrival, requiring immediate neurosurgical intervention.”
Schumacher also suffered a brain hemorrhage, and his life prognosis was at risk.
When he woke up six months later, nothing was the same.
To this day, it is difficult to know the state of Michael Schumacher’s health, as his family is extremely discreet on the subject.
They keep him away from the media and do not reveal any information about him.
The Formula 1 world champion is now unable to walk or stand, and it is impossible for him to communicate with those around him.
Michael Schumacher is cared for 24 hours a day by a team of about fifteen doctors, nurses and physiotherapists.
A whole decade has passed since the accident involving Michael Schumacher, which occurred while skiing in the resort of Méribel in the French Alps.
Since September 2014, he has been living in a medical suite in his family villa in Gland, Switzerland.
“He is a prisoner of his own body,” said Gaëtan Vigneron, an F1 commentator for 30 years and an expert on the racing scene.
Michael’s younger brother Ralf revealed information to some local media, which was picked up by the Daily Mail: “I miss the Michael of old.
Life can be so unfair sometimes. Michael has been very lucky all his life.

It’s a good idea to frequently check under and around your car in this part of the country to make sure that animals hasn’t established a home there. A kind-hearted woman decided to step in when she noticed a newborn deer sleeping under someone else’s car tire.
This image on Facebook went viral after a woman published it to alert the driver of the car of a newborn deer that was sleeping under a tire.
The answers were sincere and sometimes funny. Joshua The most well-liked comment to date is this one from Kevin Nye:
It’s obvious that the woman was ancient, but how? Why didn’t she just send you a message if you saw her, rather than alerting you to the presence of a blasted deer beneath the tire? I need some clarification!
A different comedian hoped the driver knew how to read and write. I guess you can’t always infer that from the way certain drivers operate their vehicles.
Among the more compassionate people who appreciated this woman’s action was Cyntha Atkinson:
I appreciate you leaving the note, sweet woman.
I’m grateful, Cyntha. One must respect the courage of people who decide to change things instead of continuing with their life as normal.
Would you have tried to entice the deer to come out from under the automobile, left a note, or carried on with your life?
