Sarah Stott lost both of her legs after she was struck by a train in Montreal on Dec. 8, 2014.

A fundraising campaign has been set up for a Montreal woman who lost both of her legs after she was hit by a train in early December.

Friends set up the campaign for Sarah Stott, to help her pay her medical bills and buy a set of prosthetic legs. The campaign has raised more than $28,000 as of Wednesday afternoon.

Sarah, 22, was coming home from a shift at the Irish Embassy Pub in downtown Montreal on Dec. 8 when she was hit by a Canadian National Railway train at about 3 a.m.
