Young accident victim is improving
BY SALLY ELLERTSON
The 10-year-old girl who was
critically injured in a hit and run ac-
cident in Arlington started slowly
coming out of her coma Tuesday af-
ternoon.
Shanda Kay Scott, granddaugh-
ter of Kay and Paul Burning of Burle-
son. squeezed her grandmother's hand
Tuesday afternoon after she opened
her eyes at Cook-Fort Worth Chil-
dren's Medical Center.
"It was sometime early after-
noon and 1 was standing by her bed
holding her hand and I thought I felt
her fingers move. I looked up at her
and both her eyelids popped open,"
Kay Buening said.
The doctors had been very skep-
tical Monday as to whether Scott
would survive. Her family had al-
ready talked about donating her or-

held hands while walking to church.
You could hear it in the kind, loving
words they used to talk about each
other—even when the other wasn't
within hearing distance. And you
could feel it—palpably—whenever
you were with them. The stolen
glances, the knowing winks, the
subtly squeezed hands—every shred
of evidence convicted these two
people of First Degree Romance.
Conlee died, quite unexpect-
edly. several months ago. And while
I don't think any of us who knew them
will ever get used to the idea of seeing
Stan sitting or walking by himself,
I'm not sure well ever be able to see
Stan without seeing a little of Coralec
there, too. They bccame so much a
part of each other, so inseparably
connected, it’s almost as if their love
transcends death.
And in a very real way, it does.
"Throughout our marriage I’ve
drawn strength and energy and pur-
pose from our love for each other,"
Stan said when a few of us visited
him recently. "That hasn't changed.
The relationship is a little different
now, obviously. Buttheloveremains,
and continues to gi vc focus and mean-
ing to my life."
So I guess it's OK if the onset of
Valentine’s Day doesn't set our hearts
aflutter like it used to. Life's seasons
ebb and flow and the only thing we
can absolutely count on is that things
will change. But that change can be a
positive thing, even in our most cher-
ished relationships. Hearts grow
fonder even as they grow older. Love
can be compelling even when it is
calm. Passion can bum at any num-
ber of different temperatures. And
romance can flourish even when
you're too tired to be romantic.
Yalentinsically speaking, or
otherwise.
gans to a needy patient.
Now things are looking up. In
addition to weaning heroff the drugs,
she is also slowly being taken off the
breathing machine. Scott was given
an EEG test to check her brain activ-
ity Wednesday morning but the family
did not have a full report back as of
press time. When a strobe light test
was done on her eyes, there was no
response but Buening said it may still
be too early.
The family is very thankful for
the help and concern they have re-
ceived from their church—St. Mat-
hew Cumberland Presbyterian—and
the community.
"Our church and people we know
have overwhelmed us," Buening said.
"They have brought food by every
night."
Scott, daughter of Joani and
Tommy Scott of Arlington, spent a
lot of her life living with her grand-
parents and going to school at Mound
Elementary in Burleson. At the time
of the accident, she was enrolled in
school in Arlington.
