Missy was one of 8 students in a prayer group who were shot by
Michael Carneal on Dec. 1, 1997, in the lobby of Heath High School
in Paducah, KY. Three girls were killed. Missy, a 15-year-old
sophomore at the time was paralyzed from the chest down. But Missy
didn't see her disability as an end. Just hours after the tragedy,
she forgave Carneal and took back her life. In the next decade,
with no malice and a focus on her physical and mental
rehabilitation, Missy would graduate from Heath, earn a bachelor's
degree in social work from Murray State University, become a
counselor for troubled youth, get married and give birth to a
healthy son. Missy, now 26, has received numerous honors over the
years for her determination and courage.
"The South Wales Coalfield Collection" (SWCC) is one of the largest
archives of its kind in the UK and of international importance.
This unique asset, however, has been under-used as a tool for
medical history because, although the Collection has been
catalogued, medical records are often 'hidden' and difficult to
locate. "Medical Records for the South Wales Coalfield" is designed
to make items of medical significance more accessible. Based on a
screening of the Collection funded by a Welcome Trust Research
Resources in Medical History Award, the volume will be a popular
with academic researchers seeking to define viable projects and
focus their efforts more effectively; teachers and lecturers
wishing to put the SWCC to educational use and members of the
general public interested in the medical and healthcare heritage of
the Coalfield.
