Man of Honour
Would he care if it was you or I in a coma? I fear not somehow.
Yes you're right, what are people thinking posting about a world famous F1 driver and his injuries who gave pleasure to millions of people?

Finally got to speak to a doctor friend of mine, they have been following this at the hospital where she works also, and they belive that over the next few days the media reports will get worse before it gets better simply due to the nature of the injury
However...
They seem to have come to the consensus, that due to the high quality immediate care he has received, he stands a very high probability of surviving...
The reports are that he was off-piste with his son and personally I think that's pretty irresponsible of him to take a 14 year old off-piste but then Schumi has never worried about doing the responsible thing.

Taking a 14 year old off piste isn't automatically irresponsible. It's the norm in fact.
Whether or not taking a 14 yo off-pisting is irresponsible is defined by whether or not you have matched the ability and the ambition to the difficulty, in the same way as on-piste skiing is. You need to look at it in the context of the slope. There's loads of pisted slopes that are far more dangerous and difficult than a gentle off piste section right next to a pisted area might be.
I'm guessing you've never been skiing, because you see some seriously good 14 year olds and some seriously bad 30 year olds. It's more irresponsible to take a poor 30 year old off piste than it is to take a talented 14 year old off piste.
SameYup. I'm in the "seriously bad 30's category"
Same. I went on a snowboarding course.

I think in cases like this they have to wait for the swelling to go down before they get a better idea of his overall condition.

Journalist disguised as priest tried to enter Schumacher's hospital room
Yep, but from what's been said today it's a positive start. Sounds like it could be weeks before we get a true picture.
