Rochelle Sanders creedles her baby boy in her arms as she softly hums him a tune.

She wants him to feel safe and to do that, she knows that she needs to stay calm,

but she's struggling to hold it together. When she looks outside, through the window of the birthing suite at Feather River Hospital,

she can see the sky darkening with smoke. It's a little after eight in the morning on November 8th, 2018.

A wildfire is racing toward the town of Paradise and the hospital is being evacuated.

A few minutes ago, her husband Chris drove off to help his elderly mother leave town.

Now, Sanders is alone with her infant son Lincoln waiting for someone to come and take them to an ambulance.

Sanders is startled as the door to her hospital room bursts open.

Four hospital staffers enter. Their face is grim. An orderly pushes a wheelchair to the side of Sanders bed.

A nurse takes Lincoln from her arms. Sanders feels fear jolt through her.

She wants her newborn close to her, but before she can say anything, one of the orderlies starts helping her out of bed.

What your arm around my shoulder, we're going to move you to a wheelchair.

A pain shoots through her abdomen. Last night, Sanders had a C-section and her whole body is aching.

As they try to lift her up, her knees buckle, but the orderlies catch her and lower her into the wheelchair.

The nurse plops the pillow on Sanders' lap and hands Lincoln back to her.

Sanders feels a wave of relief as she holds his tiny body.

One of the orderlies pushes her into the hallway. It's complete chaos.

Patients and wheelchairs and gurneys line the walls. Staff members sprint back and forth.

I need a gurney at 22b. I need to get my sickest patient to the front of the line. Let's go!

As they roll towards the exit, the nurse paces alongside them, telling Sanders the plan.

Lincoln was born two weeks premature and isn't ready for discharge. Rochelle is still recovering.
