Schumacher could ‘live a relatively normal life’: FIA presidentOctober 7, 2014 - 14:16 AMT PanARMENIAN.Net - Michael Schumacher might be able to "live a relatively normal life" after recovering from a ski accident that left him fighting for his life, FIA (International Automobile Federation) president Jean Todt said, according to Yahoo!Sport. The German F1 legend spent months several in a coma in a Grenoble hospital after hitting his head while skiing off piste in Meribel at the end of 2013. He underwent nearly three months of treatment in an outdoor section of the hospital known as Jardin des Sens, or Garden of the Senses, shielded from view. It specialises in the recovery of severely traumatized neurological patients by exposing them to water, scents and other elements. Schumacher was moved back home on Sept 9 and received round-the-clock care, and despite initial reports from medical experts claiming that the racing legend would "remain an invalid for rest of his life", FIA president Todt has now stated that the 45-year-old will be able to "live a relatively normal life". "We may assume that Schumacher can live a relatively normal life within a short period of time," Todt told French radio station RTL. "What we can say is that he will probably never again drive a Formula One car. He fights. His condition improves, which is very important."
