Erika Poremski, the child&#8217;s mother, said she had quickly stepped out to her car when she turned around to find the house in flames and her daughter Viviana inside.<br />

Erika Poremski had burns on her hands and face from when she repeatedly tried to go back into the house to rescue Viviana.<br />
Polo didn’t survive the fire.<br />
&#8220;He was my first baby and now I lost him,&#8221; Poremski said. &#8220;And I&#8217;m just praying I don&#8217;t lose her. She&#8217;s all I have and it just happened so fast, I just don&#8217;t understand it. I just don&#8217;t know why this stuff happens.&#8221;</p>
