I have been a critic of the way Schumi's family has handled his injury from the very beginning.
All they need to do is release a brief statement commenting on his condition, and repeating that they want privacy in the matter and that the public should not expect to hear more.
BUT TELL US THE CONDITION! The fans want to know.
I suspect he is in something of a vegetative state. If he is conscious, I highly doubt he can move very much, walk, feed himself, etc.
Fans have always wanted to believe that he would heal fully or substantially since the moment of the accident, but doctors in the relevant area say that is almost certainly never going to happen.
I hate to say it, but the next time we hear a substantial piece of news about Schumi, coming from the family, will be when they announce his death.
People in this sort of condition do not live long lives.
and once again i'll reply as i can tell first-hand experience from a nearly identical situation.
nobody is entitled to ANYTHING.
it is private matter and that is what it is. out of respect for the individual, leave it be.
it's their
right to keep it private,
we have no right to demand or even want information.
It is such a troublesome, painful and problematic situation that it is
best to keep quiet,
especially to
honor the person that was before the incident, not the literally damaged person
that came after. Nobody deserves such an aftermath and it would harm, dishonor and hurt the individual
if people really knew it's physical (especially mental) state, let alone a photo come out.
I have had huge clashes with my sister as she had the nerve to post a photo of my father after the accident,
in all his sorrowed and troubled expression, publicly, on a social media page. It is depraving and disrespectful
to do such a thing and i can honestly tell you, i am still annoyed by it.
There's one thing of sharing what happened and the effects, but it's a whole thing together to actually give
a literal picture. Therefor i honestly hope no picture
EVER will come out of post-accident Schumi.
I'll repeat once again shortly the important facts, and how i can guarantee things are similar, with the only
benefit Schumacher had was that he has more financial space to be 'privilidged' with absolute top medical
treatments. still, it seems, the outcome is the same, well, it actually seems worse for Schumacher.
Schumacher hit his head against a rock during skiing and it damaged his skull paired to the shock causing
brain concussion and swelling, damaging the tissue.
My father fell from about 5 meters and hit hit his head on a huge cast-iron flower pot head-first, no protection.
Schumacher was in Coma and the outcome from reports indicate he can't walk and if able to communicate, is
hard. My father was in Coma and woken up at some point but has extensive brain damage due to the impact causing
damage to the brain tissue. It took hard effort and fighting to have my father walk again, with help on a little cartwheel. it took time to be able to communicate coherently but it always remaind troublesome and clearly somebody with extensive brain damage.
the clear, painful, undeniable, and inhuman truth is that it was clear my father was locked inside a damaged head.
and though he couldn't understand exactly what was happening, where he was and why he couldn't go home,
it was very obvious that he knew he had brain damage and the state he was in.
it took 3 painful years before for still some unclear reason his physical condition suddenly worsened - i personally believe he had cancer and it hit a critical point - and he rapidly faded into a thoroughly worse physical condition and i had him
literally dying in my arms.
now, again, what has this to do with Schumacher?
His condition in some regards must have been worse as reports indicated he cried when looking outside,
he was in a wheelchair, and no reports of communication [speech] or real conciousness have been ever mentioned.
the family has been severly protective of his situation and made more than one legal matter of supposed news breaking out.
and now, all of a sudden, a news article that never has been ever confirmed by the family, suggesting schumacher went to a hospital for a certain treatment, which turns out a stemcell treatment which has been mentioned as very risky, and it supposedly is about Schumacher.
IF it indeed is true, and it is about Schumacher, it just goes to show how bad and hopeless his situation must have been, as this is first and foremost an experimental and risky treatment. It is a 'last effot' hope treatment of which there is hope it might improve his condition. Honest to god, i hope it does, i really do, but i don't believe it much.
It also goes to show that his life quality must have been so bad (like my father had) that it is decided this surgery needed to happen. That means the family nor micheal himself had peace with the situation. Again,
just goes to show the life quality that was going on.
Because i can guarantee this: if Schumacher
REALLY was conciouss in a manner which life can be enjoyed,
able to have a 'real' conversation, able to enjoy life
despite the physical/mental handicap he must be in,
then there is absolutely
no way he would risk such a treatment. It's not just a foot injury.
What surprises me the most about the reports is that Schumacher supposedly is 'fully concious' about all this.
It goes in completely against any report there has ever been about Michael's condition, as it almost paints a picture of Schumacher 'simply' being handicapped physically, and not mentally, which is by no means at all true. He is, very much, mentally handicapped due to the injury. We're not talking somebody with down syndrome, but we are talking about a person which brain has been damaged. Imagine it a car forced to keep going with it's engine only running on 1 cylinder and the block being torn apart and essentially the rest of the engine gone.
Hell, even the reports of his supposed 'transport' indicate that he is by no means in any positive condition.
He supposedly has been transported in an ambulance on a brancard which had been
covered completely,
as if he was a deceased person. not a man in a wheelchair, not a man in a covered wheelchair, but a man strapped to a brancard which has been covered.
has stem cell treatment been cause for positve outcomes? sure, in certain cases yes.
but by god people please do not imagine a Family-Guy like situation where a brain-damaged peter walks into a stem cell facility and then walks out like nothing ever happened.
What happened happened, and no amount of brain surgery has been able to get Schumacher in a acceptable state. That is the harsh truth. If it would be any other way, we'd have had reports of Schumacher long ago. Even if he'd be in a wheelchair a-la Frank Williams, and with more physical difficulties, i am confident that Schumacher himself would have made a statement and a wave to the world. It is thus clear that he is in a troublesome state. This surgery as such can only mean that this has been 'forced' upon him. He has no will, as i can speak of experience that you have to sign a paper that people in such a state will have their will moved to a representative, a family mamber or somebody else capable. Either way, this then is something forced upon and essentially a final-ditch effort.
I'm very sorry to paint such a negative picture, but the truth is that it's not a movie scene situation. People should stop expecting anything at all. People need to learn to move on.
