Summary
Natalie Queiroz was eight months pregnant when she was stabbed by her partner in the most vicious attack imaginable.
In the space of nine minutes, and in broad daylight, Natalie was stabbed 24 times with a carving knife. She suffered horrific wounds to her lungs, liver, stomach and uterus, whilst the knife missed her baby by a margin of two millimetres, before the arteries in her wrists were methodically severed by the hooded attacker she finally realised was her partner and the father of her unborn child.
After heroic intervention by passers-by and police, the attack was brought to an end, but her ordeal was not over. An air ambulance rescue was launched, and against all medical odds, Natalie and her baby survived - but not without life-changing physical and emotional damage.
Still Standing is the story of one life-shattering event - what came before that fateful day, what happened on it and how one woman and her baby survived to rebuild and heal together after it. At once a shocking story of evil, manipulation and violence and a truly moving reminder that a life can be pieced back together, no matter how bad the damage, this book will empower and inspire anyone who has ever faced true adversity to rise up and stand tall.

Astounding!!
Frank, honest, inspiring and harrowing in equal measures. The strength of Natalie is clear and the unwavering support she has to protect her girls and face her assailant is breathtaking!! Absolutely recommended!!!

A thought provoking and emotional read
There are lots of things that I would like to comment on regarding the events that unfold in this book but this is probably not the right forum. This book is an emotional and quite intense journey and it had me hooked in from the start. it is very much about the key facts and there are several unanswered questions for me, mainly around the family dynamic of the perpetrator. The author is clearly a tough cookie and I'm not sure the narrator sounded steely enough but that is only from my perspective.

A must read
This is an amazing story of a Womens strength to tell her story. I couldn’t put this down once I started.
She is inspirational after what she has been through.
The narrator was really good too.
