Michella Flores must think trouble and tragedy are going out of their way to follow her.

The 51-year-old Santa Rosa flight attendant was in Las Vegas on Oct. 1 watching country star Jason Aldean when a sniper's bullets showered down at the Route 91 Harvest Festival. She wasn't hit, but the massacre left her shaking. She could not sleep for days.

She hid in a nearby casino's conference room with other concertgoers after fleeing down Las Vegas Boulevard.

A little over a week later, on the night of Oct. 8, she was on her way to her parent's rented home in Santa Rosa — where she was staying until she could move into another house — when saw an orange glow on a hill. Flores, a former paramedic and firefighter, knew that from the wind direction, the wildfire was headed directly at the house.

"Last Sunday, I was running from bullets," Flores told KTVU. "This Sunday, I was running from fire."

After warning her parents to start packing, she left to walk her dog, Baylee, but heard on an emergency dispatch service crews mentioning a road near their house.

"I called my mom," Flores told CNN, "and my mom screamed in the phone and said, 'It's at the bottom of our driveway!'" When she returned, a fire engine was already there.

Her parents left to stay at a community center, but Flores stayed, and for hours helped firefighters protect the family's home as flames licked at the walls. A neighbors' house burned down.

In the morning, with their house still intact, she left for a work-related training class in Oakland. When she returned, she got the bad news: While she was gone, the fire jumped from nearby trees to the house. It was a total loss.

"Almost everything I own is gone," she said. "My bed, my bike, my clothes, my flight attendant uniforms."

Her parents don't have their own place to stay, but they were able to move into the rental that Flores was getting ready. The family didn't have renter's insurance.

Despite the loss, Flores hasn't missed a day of work. She says others have it worse than she and her family.

"Puerto Rico," she told CNN. "Well, gosh, they're worse off than we are."
