"...However, a Leadville resident who went into labor while on the road to Vail was able to give birth at the St. Anthony Copper Mountain clinic last month
...While the clinic was considered a “ski clinic,” it is equipped to function as an urgent care, or an emergency care facility in certain cases.
...The clinic had just closed when Jaci and Tracy arrived at the ambulance bay.

...The clinic had just closed when Jaci and Tracy arrived at the ambulance bay.
Tracy pleaded for help from the remaining staff, telling them that Jaci’s contractions were speeding up and the baby was on the way.
The clinic’s nurses, physicians and staff sprung into action, preparing the young mother for birth. Their help came not a minute too soon.
...Within minutes, a new life entered the world in the form of a baby girl named Mackenzie.
She was born at a healthy 5 pound, 7 ounces and without the need for oxygen after birth, a rarity for Leadville babies.
...Luckily for the Vincents, the clinic at Copper was there exactly when they needed it.
To recognize little Mackenzie’s amazing birth story and to pay tribute to the folks who helped make it happen, the baby got a very fitting middle name.
Welcome to the world, Mackenzie Copper Vincent."
