The 29-year-old had been out with a friend when her frantic partner told her to get home quickly and when she arrived at the flat in Wythenshawe, she noticed several fire engines.
A pregnant mum who lost everything in a horror house fire has warned people to be vigilant when using candles after discovering a single tealight caused a devastating blaze in her home.
The blaze completely destroyed the flat and all of the family's new baby clothes and essentials. Cathrine, who is 32 weeks pregnant, even feared the stress had caused early labour as she had to be rushed to hospital just days after the fire. "He started panicking so got my son out of the house. At first it wasn't clear how bad the fire was but when they looked up they realised the loft was on fire and it was uncontrollable. There were four or five fire engines and it took around four hours for them to put the fire out. At 8pm there were still hot points all over the flat."
"It's just so upsetting. We've not been sleeping properly. When you've got to tell people it's like you're constantly reliving that moment.
