While Michael Schumacher is celebrating his 54th birthday today, his wife, Corinna, could not hide her distress when discussing her state of health, nine years after her skiing accident.
“Happy birthday to the best dad ever, I love you.” It is with these words that Mick Schumacher wished a happy birthday on Instagram to his father, Michael Schumacher. Attention accompanied by a photo where the seven-time world champion poses all smiles with his son. A memory of another time, before the terrible skiing accident he suffered in December 2013 and which caused him to live in bed, unable to speak.
Michael Schumacher is no less aware of this and follows F1 races, according to Jean Todt. “I don’t miss Michael, I can see that. But of course what I miss is what we were doing together,” confided this summer the former boss of the Scuderia. F1 specialist at Courier of the Greenhousejournalist Giorgio Terruzzi painted a darker picture. “Schumi is crying. And sometimes mysteriously. He cries when he hears his children, his wife’s voice, his dogs. In the silence of this room, a tear runs down her thin face at a known sound. There is life, enclosed in a drop – there is the strength of a man who moves and moves each of us. We have her tears, her senses exposed,” he had written.
Very discreet about the situation of her husband, Corinna Schumacher herself could not hold back her tears when discussing her new life with the Red Baron. “We are together, we live together at home. He is undergoing treatment. We are doing everything to improve his condition and make him feel our family, our bond. she confided in a documentary for Netflix, adding, tears in her eyes: “I miss him every day. But he is there. He’s different today, but he’s here and that gives us strength. »
And the emotion was just as palpable this summer when Corinna Schumacher, accompanied by her daughter Gina and Jean Todt, came to collect the trophy for the State Prize of North Rhine-Westphalia awarded to her husband. Her tears hadn’t stopped flowing for long minutes.
