anyone knows how to solve this Power of Attorney problem?

[Katy Nguyen]

Hi everyone. I'm in contract to purchase this property. The seller is in a coma and cannot sign. The seller is being represented by his relative who has Power of Attorney. The County Recorder's Office (out of state) won't record the Deed unless they see and also record the original Power of Attorney paper along with the Deed. The problem is the person with the POA won't send out the original POA paper because if it is lost in the mail or lost by the County after recording, it will be a big problem for the seller who is in a coma. The Recorder's Office won't accept a photocopy of the POA paper when recording the Deed. Anyone knows of a solution to this problem? Thanks.
