About this listen

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.

A truly amazing and heartfelt story.

This book was raw and so well put together the courage and strength it would have taken to get through the worse possible ordeal one could imagine.
The steps you took including seeing him would have taken everything in you but you did it. You are brave and strong.
May your life now heal and you have happiness for the rest of your days.
Thankyou.

The strength of character that is Natalie

An incredible retelling of the most unbelievable planned undertaking by a pathetic shell of a man who set out to destroy his so called “love of his life” and his unborn baby
Thank you Natalie for sharing your story as I have gained such valuable insights of what 1 person can live through
Please know your story has and will continue to help me through my life’s journey albeit nothing like yours xx xxxxxxxx
