The worst part other than making her cry was making her stay there for
hours while they figured out what they were supposed to do. They had to
call the DMV, then mom had to call the DMV to confirm something or other,
all the while a neighbor was waiting for her outside in her car to drive
her home. I wouldn't expect the neighbor to step in and try to figure this
out, which is why I wish I knew about it and was there.

And Gramby, I did tell her over and over that she doesn't need to go
through these things herself. I will always be here for her. She just
needs to tell me. I think by the end of our phone call she knows that she
can call me away from work to help her.

I will remind her again and again with hugs.

When she is calmer, you need to remind her that she needs to call you.

Then go and rip those S O B"s a new body part. Then contact your better
business bureau. Then write a letter to you local newspaper.

People who do this sort of thing are horrid, been there done that. If
it is all as she says, you need to tell everyone you meet about it.

If it is a rule, then they should have told her from the outset.

My mom decided to sell my dad's car and got a few quotes from dealers on
trade-ins and also went to Carmax, who gave a good quote. She went
today to finalize the sale and I don't know the whole story because mom
was crying when she told me, but they gave her a hard time because the
death certificate for my dad wasn't stamped, and apparently the death
certificates here aren't stamped like they used to be, and the Carmax
person wouldn't accept it because of that. Actually, when she first
went in for the quote they never told her they needed a death
certificate to make the sale, and she just brought one along as an
afterthought. After having to escalate the problem to management and
her losing it and crying asking why they are giving her such a hard time
after just losing her husband and she didn't know what she was supposed
to do? I told her she needs to call me in these situations because I
didn't know she was going in there today to do this. She is way more
important to me than my job and I'd leave work to go help her. *sigh*
