I am guessing with her post centering so on legacy status, not to mention finding direct quotes, she would have mentioned if mom was in another group, went to college and didn't join etc etc.

Yes sorry for the confusion--I know how MRABA/COB/snap bids work I just phrased it incorrectly! And yes, it's my dads mom.

Sometimes these things have a way of working out for the best in the long run, even if it doesn't seem so at the time. While it is nice to continue the legacy tradition, it in no way should diminish the opportunity you actually do have. And depending on how recently this all happened, you may well be able to still accept the bid you were offered.

I'm sure this really sucks for you since you were so certain how this was all going to work out, but it might be time to make lemonade, so to speak.
