Schumacher is fighting for his life

I don't know how reputable Sports Illustrated is, but their post above suggests that Schumacher might not recover from his injuries.

He was placed in a medically induced 'coma' but hasn't yet recovered enough to be brought out of it (patient's usually taking just 2-4 weeks). The headline there suggested it may be a permanent coma, i.e. he won't survive on his own. Time will tell.. people can be kept in coma's for a very long time, but as time goes on, the chances very rapidly.
