So lost and dont know what to do.

[Denise (Chat moms do it best)]

I am not sure how this is all done. I have a problem. My son has been in a very bad motorcycle accident. He is in bad condition. My son has always told me that there is a POA and will. He was very bad about mailing things to me. I am trying to find out if the Navy keeps that information. If they do where ans who would I contact. How can I contact to find out. He is in Norfolk and I am in Washington state. I am trying to get there. He was to be married on Aug 1st. I have plane tickets already but its not until the 29th. The airline wants over 1100.00 to change our tickets. They are for my husband myself and his sister.
I dont know what to do. I know getting there is important but they have him on versid. So there in nothing he is going to remember about any of this. I know there is nothing at all I can do for him yet. So I have been trying to take care of all the other things. But without the POA there isnt much I can do. Can anyone offer me any advise. Where to I go in the Navy to get answeres.

I am so sorry for this. I wish I could assist you with things but it looks like so many moms have found the info that you needed.
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you

Denise:

As also said before you can contact the
Red Cross [phone]

Call them and give them your sons info and his command. Let the Red Cross know that you need the Command to contact you, so when the Red Cross sends the message to the command, the Command will call you.

Understand due to privacy act and HIPPA laws the command may not be able to tell you much.

Denise, How are you doing? We are praying for you and your son.

Hoppi thanks for helping her.

Hi Denise,

sorry to hear I hope he gets better and my prayers are with you and your family.
I would contact the Airline directly by email. I had to change my tickets and they wanted to add all this fees. but when i complained they replied and waved the changing fee. I hope that helps.
good luck

I am about 20 minutes from Norfolk. Please let me know what I can do to help. If you want, I'll be happy to visit him.

Thanks you very much. I got may flight changed we will be going out tomorrow. CAn you by chance tell me how far the airport is to the Norfolk General. I was going to have the family go settle down and get some rest and I would rent a car and go stright to the hospital.
