The sole survivor of a catastrophic crash that killed a young couple and their unborn baby has revealed she's still undergoing surgeries almost three years later.
The Brisbane mum was stopped at traffic lights when a stolen car driven by a drunk 17-year-old ran a red light and collided into her in Alexandra Hills on January 26, 2021.
The car had also hit Matthew Field and his pregnant partner Kate Leadbetter, who were walking their dogs at the time. The couple and their unborn son were killed.
The teen driver was sentenced to a maximum of 10 years behind bars after pleading guilty to manslaughter and several other charges.
The only survivor has spoken for the first time about the fateful night that changed her life forever.

'I went from being a happy, pretty healthy mum, being very hands-on ... to not being able to pick up my child anymore, to dropping things, forgetting things,' she told Nine News.
