is your gma also from texas? if so, my post above might be helpful. PM me if you need the link to getting the BC. It was really easy online. Get started ASAP. The sooner the better so you don't have to stress about it.

I second that, they usually can get results faster than anything you can do on your own. Good luck

She is from California. I will call her tomorrow and see what she has in the way of a BC. Thanks! I will PM if I need any info. Seems so silly. Like our elderly don't go through enough government hoopla!!

I'm so sorry to hear this, there's gotta be a way. I'm sure it'll probably require a trip to the passport office and a lot of fun calls. Keep us posted.

Best of luck getting this sorted out. I bet it won't take too long once you find the right people to talk to.

Thank you all for the support and suggestions. My mom has been on the case this morning, and was on the phone for 2 hours with the passport office. She also found a way of the church to send a sealed baptismal certificate, and I'm going to go home and write a list of all your suggestions and talk to my mom about them tonight. Again, thank you so much. You don't know how much I appreciate all your suggestions and help.

 

There's just no way she can't go. She has a new dress and got a new battery in her pacemaker just for this trip!

I'll definitely keep you posted! Positive thinking!!

A baptismal certificate should do the trick. It's on the list of things to prove age.

Oh good news, and a relief. I'm going to go back and read your old post. I'm sorry this happened to you too, but comforting to know that you got everything worked out.
