  • Intro:

    Latest on Michael Schumacher's condition after skiing accident.

    Script:

    Doctors treating Michael Schumacher have refused to predict the outcome for the former Formula One driver, saying they were treating his critical head injury "hour by hour" following his skiing accident and not yet able to talk about outcomes.
    His wife and other family members are by his bedside and are worried by his condition according to Professor Gerard Saillant, a brain and spine specialist, surgeon and a personal friend of Schumacher.

    "The family is worried, his wife is worried, his children are worried. We are all worried by his condition which has been made clear. Doctors do not want to tell you more because they cannot tell you more. They are working hour by hour and that is when decisions are taken."

    Schumacher was wearing a helmet at the time, but the doctors said it was clearly not sufficient to prevent a serious brain injury.
