<p>Colette Sulcer, 41, and her child — who has not been identified — were driving in their hometown of Beaumont when their vehicle got stuck in <a href="http://people.com/pets/hurricane-harvey-pet-stories-rescues-reunions-animal-refugees/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">high water from Hurricane Harvey.</a></p>
<p>When Sulcer and her daughter exited the vehicle, they were swept a half mile away from the car.</p>

CPR was performed and both the mother and daughter were rushed to a waiting ambulance, according to police.</p>
<p>Sulcer died, but the child “survived, miraculously,” officer Carol Riley, a spokeswoman for the Beaumont Police Department, tells PEOPLE. “She is absolutely precious, everyone in the hospital fell in love with her.</p>
