A doctor who was almost murdered by a man she met on Tinder has released images of her injuries.
Dr. Angela Jay, 29, has revealed the extent of her wounds that were taken a few days after she was attacked by her ex-boyfriend, Paul Lambert, in a Facebook post.
The images show the huge bruises and stitches the doctor needed to place in her after she was stabbed 11 times and doused with petrol.
The 28-year-old shared the post as she prepares to hike the Kokoda Track in April to raise funds for White Ribbon, an organization that campaigns against violence against women and girls.
The doctor is now committed to speaking out about her horrific injuries sustained during the November 2016 attack, to raise awareness and encourage others to speak out too.
“I put pressure on my leg using my hand, all the time thinking, ‘I need to get out of here.’ He caught me again and started pouring petrol over me, there was terror now and that gave me extra strength to run,” she told the newspaper following the horrific attack.
She was rushed to Port Macquarie Base Hospital in serious condition.
Police shot dead Lambert, 36, on the Pacific Highway following his brutal attack during a standoff.
