(ANSA) - Rome, January 2 - Michael Schumacher's family said on the eve of his 50th birthday Wednesday they were doing everything possible for the seven-time Formula One champion after his brain injury in a skiing accident in 2013.
    Schumacher, who retired from racing in 2012, has not been seen in public since. The German is being cared for at home in Switzerland.
    "You can be sure that he is in the very best of hands and that we are doing everything humanly possible to help him," the family said in a statement that made a rare comment about his condition.
    "Please understand if we are following Michael's wishes and keeping such a sensitive subject as health, as it has always been, in privacy," it added.
    The family said an official Michael Schumacher app will be released on Thursday to enable fans to review all his career successes. The Keep Fighting Foundation has also created a virtual museum.
