6 months after his ski accident, the German leaves the hospital in Grenoble where he had been since the day of his accident to start a long rehabilitation.

Statement of the management of Michael Schumacher:

 

“Michael has left the CHU Grenoble to continue his long phase of rehabilitation. He is not in a coma anymore.

 

His family would like to explicitly thank all his treating doctors, nurses and therapists in Grenoble as well as the first aiders at the place of the accident, who did an excellent job in those first months.

 

The family also wishes to thank all the people who have sent Michael all the many good wishes to Michael. We are sure it helped him.

 

For the future we ask for understanding that his further rehabilitation will take place away from the public eye.”
