The teen who was hit by a car in August has woken up from a medically induced coma. 

On the family's Go Fund Me page, it said that she is not following with her eyes yet and can't move much of her right side. It also said they are not sure yet if she can recognize anyone yet.

Morgan Doremus was airlifted to the hospital after being hit by a car in front of Ellison High School on Aug. 24. 

The 15-year-old girl was walking on 3800 block of Trimmier when she was struck by a vehicle around 1 p.m.

Killeen Police believe she was distracted by her phone when she walked into the road. 

The teen was airlifted to the Temple Scott & White Hospital in critical condition.
