F1: Schumacher: 100 days of fighting

Today, April 9 2014, it's exactly 100 days since Michael Schumacher's horrible skiing accident. 100 days later and he is still in a coma in the Grenoble hospital. But last week we (finally!) got some good news, Michael would show moments of consciousness, awakening and according to some he would even make eye contact and respond to voices. It might seem small things but it sure is the best news we have had in those 100 days.

After 100 days, I still believe that Schumi will wake up. I know that it might sound naive and actually I'm very aware of that. And I don't mean that in a negative kind of way. I understand the chances of him waking up and being back as he was before his accident are very small. And they are getting smaller every day. They're small but they are there. There still is a chance he will wake up. And as long as there is even the smallest chance, I  believe in it. Someone once told us "we are always there, we always fight, we never give up... that's why we are here". And yes, that was Mr Schumacher himself. Michael has fought his whole life, from the moments the lights went off, till the passing of the finish line. And this, this isn't the finish line. We're still in the middle of the fight and this is a fight Michael will win.
