It is the gravest of all sins, what is known as Sin against the Holy Ghost and is flat-out rejection of God. She is saying that her suffering is greater than God’s love and mercy and we all know that is not true. To think she may find salvation if she kills herself is calling God a liar.

Well, if a healthy person just flat out wings it with no extenuating circumstances at all I would agree.

A person in severe, intractable, untreatable, unrelenting, intolerable pain I'm not so sure (palliative pain treatment doesn't always work). God has Mercy and Compassion.

This individual doesn't appear to be in much pain judging by her jetting around to complete the bucket list.

People contemplating suicide for any reason or for no reason do need our prayers, you are correct.

God gives no man a cross he can't carry. Some crosses may be heavier than others.

Act of Resignation to the Divine Will

O Lord my God, I now at this moment, readily and willingly accept at Thy hand whatever kind of death it may please Thee to send me, with all its pains, penalties and sorrows.
