While the doctors managed to get the heartbeat going, Roscoe was left in a coma. The Briton claimed that the doctors would be making an effort to wake his dog from a coma.
The caretaker of Lewis Hamilton's dog, Kirstin McMillan, took to Instagram on September 28 and uploaded a couple of stories with an emotional update about Roscoe. The caretaker apologised for not responding to the DMs amid Roscoe's health scare, as it was “unexpected and felt sudden”
“I have no control over outcome, but have fervently done my part so that this dogs body has been kept strong & resilient. In crisis, he is prepared. That's bc as you guys know Lewis has always made his health priority. Pray that the hands & hearts of the doctors are guided, resourced and pure,” read her Instagram story.
“This dog has a consistent history of resilience. Strong bodies know how to heal once obstacles are removed. I'm keeping my vibe high (it's a repetitive process at moment) because higher hearts bring the medicine we need right now. Hold space from Victory,” she added
