Still StandingHow many times can a woman fall before she believes she was never meant to rise again?Marlene Edwards knows what it means to lose herself while simply trying to survive.Behind the moments when she appeared strong, alive, and in control was a woman carrying pain, searching for love and worth, and battling addictions that slowly chipped away at her identity. Her choices affected not only her own life but also the lives of the people she loved most.But Still Standing is not simply a story about addiction.It is a story about survival, accountability, forgiveness, family, redemption, and the courage to begin again.With honesty and vulnerability, Marlene opens the door to some of the most difficult seasons of her life—the mistakes, the consequences, the relationships, the pain, and the moments that eventually forced her to face herself.She does not tell her story from a place of perfection. She tells it from the other side of a fight that could have destroyed her.And through it all, love remained.The love of a mother who stepped in when Marlene could not. The love of children who carried their own pain yet found their way toward forgiveness. And the unconditional love of a husband who met the woman she had fought so hard to become.Still Standing is for anyone who has ever looked at the wreckage of yesterday and wondered whether there was enough life left to build a tomorrow.Marlene's story offers a powerful reminder:You are more than the worst thing you have ever done.Your past does not have to become your permanent address.And if you are still here, your story is still being written.She fell.She fought.She changed.And after everything—she is still standing.
