sALT LAKE CITY -- Canadian freestyle skier Sarah Burke's agent and her publicist were teary-eyed at a hospital Monday as they tried to explain the lack of any prognosis report for the Olympic favorite.
Burke, 29, was seriously injured Jan. 10 in a training accident at the superpipe in Park City, Utah, and six days later remained sedated on a breathing tube as doctors tested her brain functions.
Reporters gathered at Salt Lake City hospital Monday for what was expected to be a discussion by doctors of Burke's most recent neurological tests and assessments.
At the last minute, however, Burke's agent, Michael Spencer, and her publicist, Nicole Wool, said there was nothing the family wanted to report as doctors continued working on Burke, so the news conference was canceled.
