Michael Schumacher Latest News and Updates: One of Former Champion's Doctors, Jean Francois Payen Provides Hope on his Condition

Ever Since Schumacher's accident, the fans have been eager to know about his ongoing progress even when there was nothing to tell. Of late there have been slow but steady tidbits of information concerning the progress of the former formula 1 champion. Jean Francois Payen, who is a doctor at the French hospital in Grenoble where Schumacher was being treated, has been continuing to track Schumacher's progress ever since he returned to his Switzerland last month. The medic warned that his recovery would take some time and estimated the recuperation time was one to three years.

Dr. Payen was speaking during an interview on French Radio station RTL, "I have noted some progress but I would say we should give him time. It's like for other patients, we are on a timescale which goes from one year to three years and we need to be patient." During the time of the accident the forensic experts at the site of the incident concluded that he was indeed going very fast at the speed of a very experienced skier.

He had to be placed in a medically induced coma in order to reduce the swelling on his brain for a period of 6 months before being transferred to a rehab clinic in Lausanne. French F1 commentator Jean Louis Moncet told Europe 1 radio station: "I saw his son and he told me that Schumi is waking up very slowly; very slowly." Moncet has retracted a statement implying the GoPro equipment Schumacher had donned during the time of the accident. According to him, it may have worsened his injuries taking into account the he had it on when he took the nasty spill down the alps. Of course, GoPro were quick to rebuff the implications and it has since been taken off the table of issues concerning the accident. At this point, the Schumacher's seem content to ensuring Michael will eventually go back to his normal life.
