Michael Schumacher awakes from coma
German Formula 1 racing driver Michael Schumacher is out of coma, said his spokeswomen Sabine Kehm in an official statement, as German media reported on Monday.
The best sports news of the year, as the German media called this, after the seven-time Formula One world champion Schumacher woke up from his over-half-year-long coma.
Schumacher has been recently removed from the University Hospital in Grenoble, France to a rehab clinic, said the official statement.
Kehm also said that his family would like to express thanks to all doctors, therapists, nurses and staff in Grenoble, as well as the first-aider at the accident site, who have done an excellent job in these first few months.
Michael Schumacher has finally awoken from his coma, almost six months after his skiing accident in France.
Accoring to the media report, the wake phasen of Schumacher that Kehm described in her last statement in early April were getting longer in recent weeks and Schumacher can hear voices that responds to touches.
German newspaper Bild also reported that Schumacher even opened his eyes during these "wake phasen" and he can communicate with people, especially with his wife and his children.
Schumacher's condition was considered stable enough so that he no longer needs the help of specialists in Grenoble.
The retired seven-time Formula One champion lay in a coma since he suffered a severe head injury in a skiing accident on Dec. 29 at Meribel ski resort in the French Alps. The recovery phase took longer than expected.
据英国路透社6月16日消息，因滑雪受伤而陷入昏迷的德国著名F-1车手米迦勒·舒马赫已脱离昏迷状态，从法国医院离开。
舒马赫发言人萨宾娜(Sabine Kehm)发表声明说：“米迦勒已经离开格勒诺布尔(医院)，他将继续长期的康复。他不再是昏迷状态了。”萨宾娜表示，舒马赫家人感谢医生和护士给予的照顾和帮助，也感谢事故现场的救援人员。不过，声明并未说明舒马赫转移到何处进行康复。
另据法新社16日消息，舒马赫接下来的康复治疗将在瑞士的洛桑市(Lausanne)进行。
声明还表示，舒马赫的进一步康复将远离公众视野，希望得到大家的理解。
2013年12月29日，舒马赫在法国阿尔卑斯山区滑雪时发生事故，头部撞到岩石，严重受创陷入昏迷。2014年2月2日，舒马赫在医院昏迷了一个月后，开始渐渐苏醒，对医生的指示出现反应，并且在脑部测试时眨了眼睛。2014年4月25日，俄罗斯RT电视台援引媒体消息称，F1赛车手舒马赫从昏迷中醒来，认出了妻子。
