Michael Schumacher's manager Sabine Kehm has released a new statement, saying he remains in the "waking up process."
The seven-time world champion has been in a medically-induced coma, following a skiing accident in the French Alps, since December 29th.
It follows media reports that Schumacher has developed pneumonia. However, Kehm's statement made no mention of that and confirmed that doctors are continuing with the process of bringing the ex-Ferrari and Mercedes driver out of his coma.
The 45-year-old's manager last updated us on his condition two weeks ago, saying the "waking up process" had begun.
The statement released today (Thursday 13th February) said: "Michael’s family would like to again express their sincere thanks for the continuous sympathy coming from all over the world. The good wishes they receive help the family and, we are convinced they also help Michael, who still is in a waking up process.
"As often in such situation no day is like the next. The family is thankful for one’s understanding that they would not wish to disclose medical details in order to protect Michael’s privacy. As assured from the beginning we will continue to communicate any decisive new information on Michael’s health state. We are aware that the wake up phase can take a long time.
"The family continues to strongly believe in Michael’s recovery and place all their trust in the doctors’, nurses’ and nursing auxiliaries’ team. The important thing is not the speed of the recovery but that Michael’s heal process progresses in a continuous and controlled way."
My thoughts and prayers remain with Schumacher and his family.
