Once she was able to take more control over her lower body, she started physical therapy to relearn how to walk. After over a year of therapy, she was able to compete in a swim meet for Notre Dame once again, but no where near as fast as she used to be.

Eventually she was able to move her big toe with much effort over the course of a few days. Slowly she was able to make the most miniscule movements within her feet.

One of the rods in her back broke off and punctured her skin. She was rushed to the hospital and had to undergo 3 more surgeries. The surgeons removed the rods and made their repairs from the front. They had to deflate her lungs, move her stomach, and tie off arteries. They also inserted a four inch piece of bone to support the spinal cord.

Following the crash, Scott pulled herself out of the broken bus window and laid in the snow for an hour before any medical personnel were able to assist her. While at risk for hypothermia was a problem, the snow prevented the area around her spine from swelling. Had it not been for this, she probably would have remained paralyzed for life.

Haley was taken into immediate surgery 4 hours following the crash due to the severity of her injury. Her spine broke multiple places within the thoracic and lumbar regions of the spine. The doctor told her it was a surgery no one would want twice due to the great amount of pain it causes. She ended up having it three times.

She had a brace that was fit to her back and was continuously tightened in order to straighten out her spine. She was also forced to lay in a rotating bed for many hours at a time and was only allowed to sit up for 5 minutes a day.

On the dark night of January 24, 1992, the bus carrying the Notre Dame Women's swim team hit a patch of black ice, flipping the bus into a ditch along side the highway. Two of Scott's teammate were killed in the accident and unbeknownst to her, she had broken her spine.
