Ava, this is pretty annoying. I have not seen annotations randomly disappear like that but sometimes these things are a mystery. A couple of things to check or work on.
You can edit the annotation, and everything else, in the layout view. You have to go to the Layout ribbon and click on Activate. This makes it act like a map. So, this could be a viable solution for this weird issue:
You can also potentially edit your annotation without seeing it. Select the annotation you want to edit, in the Map go to the Edit ribbon and then click on Attributes. This will allow you to edit it in the Attributes editing pane:
One more idea is to just make a copy of the dataset (like a temporary one) and see if the zooming out thing still happens to it. In any case, I hope one of the above solutions to help with getting you what you need for the short turnaround.
