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.
THIS ITALIAN TEEN’S 2006 DEATH COULD MAKE HIM THE FIRST MILLENNIAL SAINT!
Think about saints, and you might picture people who lived a long time ago. But there’s big news: the world might soon have its first millennial saint, someone who lived not too long ago!
Carlo Acutis, an Italian teenager, could become the first millennial saint. He passed away in 2006 when he was only 15 years old. Carlo is special because he’s known as the patron saint of the internet. He was really good with computers and used them to talk about his faith.
Carlo was born in London, but his family moved to Milan when he was little. He loved Catholicism from a young age. His passion for the religion was so strong that it even inspired his mom, Antonia Acutis, to rejoin the church. Even as a kid, he went to church every day.
From a young age, Carlo felt a strong calling to help others. He did things like giving to homeless people to make a difference. Before he died, Carlo used his computer skills to create a website to help others.
After he passed away, his mom got messages from people all over the world. They told her about miracles that happened after they prayed to Carlo. Some said they got better from cancer or became able to have children.
Carlo’s mom said he was like a light in the darkness of the internet. Some people even called him an “influencer for God” because they admired him so much.
Carlo’s mom, Ms. Acutis, believes her son’s life shows how the internet can be used for good things.
In 2020, the Diocese of Assisi, where Carlo’s family had property, asked the Vatican to make him a saint.
In February 2020, Pope Francis said a sick boy got better after touching Carlo’s shirt.
To become a saint, Carlo needs one more miracle. The Vatican says a Costa Rican student got better after her mom prayed to Carlo.
The Pope might call a meeting to talk about making Carlo a saint, but there’s no date for the ceremony yet.
It will be interesting to see Carlo become the first millennial saint! What do you think? Let us know in the comments and share this news with your friends and family.
