General Discussion

my great grandparents had already moved to the U.S. before my Dad was born, so that rules that out. My Italian grandparents moved to the US in 1914 and 1916, but if they were naturalized before my Mom was born which seems likely the Italian citizenship is off the books for me too.

Maybe if Pope Francis is still in charge he will find a way to get asylum for some of the more progressive or lapsed(me) Catholics, as he is not a fan of American Bishops or Trump, but that's a pipe dream.

I am not wealthy, I am a senior citizen,am on disability, and have a lot of health issues, so it's not likely I could get citizenship elsewhere. Plus I refuse to abandon my dog and cat. I don't know what I will do, if the worst case scenario happens, because I really don't want to be forced into having only one other option, if it does.

I really hope someone has alternate options to choose from before then.
