GoFundMe created for P.A. teen struck while helping another motorist

A fundraiser for a Prince Albert teen who was struck by a vehicle while trying to rescue another motorist from a ditch had raised $3,525 as of Monday afternoon.

The crash happened late Thursday afternoon, south of Neuanlage on Highway 11. Morgan Miller, 17, was in the process of looking to see where he could hook on to a vehicle in the ditch when he was hit by another vehicle that lost control on the road.

Miller remains in hospital in Saskatoon with extensive injuries, according to a Facebook post from the family, but was responding to questions with nods and other facial gestures.

“He is moving his legs and arms and wants to have the ventilator out. The nurses ask him to stop moving and sometimes he chooses to listen and sometimes he chooses to be Morgan and not listen,” the family member wrote Sunday morning.

His parents have decided to donate all money raised from the GoFundMe to Stars Ambulance, the service that airlifted him to hospital.

“Let’s help raise money for Stars who were instrumental in saving Morgan’s life,” the teen’s hockey team, the Lakeland Towing Vulcans, wrote on Facebook.
