Small improvement for Schumacher after 2nd surgery

Doctors treating Michael Schumacher say the Formula 1 champion is showing small signs of improvement in a brain scan after undergoing a second operation for brain injuries he suffered during a ski accident.

Schumacher was skiing with his son when he fell and struck a rock Sunday in the French Alps.

"We can't say he is out of danger but ... we have gained a bit of time," said Dr. Jean-Francois Payen, the doctor in charge of Grenoble University Hospital's intensive care unit. "The coming hours are crucial."

Payen said Schumacher underwent surgery overnight his second since the fall on Sunday and a brain scan Tuesday showed minor improvement. But doctors say the retired seven-time champion still has brain lesions.
