TRACKING THE REST. COMING UP. >> ALL RIGHT, ERIN, THANK HORRIFIC CAR CRASH LEFT A SEMINOLE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT IN THE HOSPITAL FIGHTING TO STAY ALIVE. THIS HAPPENED NEAR THE SHAWNEE MALL OFF NORTH KICKAPOO AVENUE. GOOD NEWS FOR SOME. I WOULD ACTUALLY SPOKE WITH TEENS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS TELLING US HOW EMOTIONAL THIS RECOVERY HAS BEEN OVER THE LAST WEEK OF DYLAN INJURED. BETHANY ANDERSEN IS ALMOST DONE WITH HER FINAL YEAR OF HIGH SCHOOL. >> HER FAMILY AND FRIENDS TOLD ME THEY'RE FOCUSING ON HER RECOVERY. AND DOING WHATEVER THEY CAN TO MAKE SURE SHE WALKS ACROSS THE STAGE. THIS GRADUATION. >> I HOPE SHE'S ALIVE AND THAT'S WHAT LAUREN KNIGHT SAYS.

HE'S RUNNING THROUGH HER MIND. LAST A SATURDAY AFTERNOON, SHE WAS HEADED TO LUNCH WITH HER KNEES. 17 YEAR-OLD BETHANY ANDERSON, WHO WAS DRIVING IN HER CAR BEHIND NIGHT. I JUST REMEMBER LOOKING UP AND SEEING THE COLLISION HAPPENED TO MY REAR VIEW MIRROR NIGHT SAID THAT SHE HAD JUST FINISHED TAKING THESE SENIOR PORTRAITS OF BETHANY WHO IS EXPECTED TO GRADUATE HIGH SCHOOL IN MAY. I SAW HER CAR SPUN BACKWARDS. THAT'S WHEN KNIGHT SAYS SHE IMMEDIATELY TURNED HER CAR AROUND AND RAN TO HELP HER NEEDS. SHE WAS LAYING TURLEY HORIZONTAL AND SHE WAS COMPLETELY UNCONSCIOUS. BETHANY WAS RUSHED TO OU HEALTH IN OKLAHOMA CITY AND HAS BEEN IN THE ICU FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE. >> SHE HAS MULTIPLE SKULL FRACTURES, BRAIN BLEEDS ACROSS THE BRAIN. AT LEAST ONE TEMPORAL BONE FRACTURE BEHIND HER EAR, A FEMUR FRACTURE AND THEN HER LEFT ANKLE IS ALSO BROKEN NIGHTS AS BETHANY'S 4 SIBLINGS. ALL THE GOT TO HER AND CALLED HER A STANDOUT STUDENT. ALREADY WILL HAVE FRESHMAN YEAR COLLEGE UNDER HER BELT.

BY THE TIME SHE GRADUATES HIGH SCHOOL. CASEY IS A FRIEND OF BETHANY'S. HE SAYS THAT SHE'S MADE QUITE THE IMPACT IN HIS LIFE. SHE IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. >> AND SHE'S SO CARING AND LOVING AND KIND ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT NEEDS FRIENDS AND FAMILY SAY, ALTHOUGH THEY AREN'T SURE WHAT HER FUTURE LOOKS LIKE. THEY'RE HOPEFUL SHE WILL PULL THROUGH. I THINK NOW. >> WHEN SHE WAKES UP, SHE'LL REALIZE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE THERE FOR HER RATHER THAN HER BEING THERE FOR EVERYBODY ELSE. >> BE.
