A Canadian paramedic who unknowingly treated her own daughter after a fatal vehicle crash brushed away tears as she remembered a beautiful girl who fought until the end. It wasn't until Erickson got home that she was met by Royal Canadian Mounted Police officers and told the patient was her 17-year-old daughter. Erickson described her daughter Montana as a success at everything she set her mind to, a swimmer who had aspirations of becoming a lawyer. Richard Reed, a friend and flight paramedic, broke down as he recounted Erickson attending the scene where a car had lost control and was struck by an oncoming truck. Erickson, the first on the scene, knew the girl was in trouble and sat there until she was extricated and transported by air ambulance, still unaware of who she was.
