                                staggering. At least 29 people died. An 
                                estimated 16,000 structures burned, including 
                                thousands of homes. Tens of thousands of people

                                are the stories of the people with disabilities 
                                who lost their lives in the blazes. One of them 
                                was Anthony Mitchell Sr., 67, an amputee who 
                                used a wheelchair to get around. Another was his 
                                son, Justin Mitchell, 35, who had cerebral palsy 
                                and also used a wheelchair. Both died in 
                                Altadena in the Eaton Fire while awaiting 
                                evacuation support. The third was Rory Sykes, 
                                32, who also had cerebral palsy and was blind as 
                                well. He died in Malibu in the Palisades fire

                                disaster preparedness plans and decision-making 
                                processes. This holds true globally, including 
                                in South Sudan, where Cheng reports on the
