To deny anyone Communion, if they choose to accept it, is FUNDAMENTALLY UN-CHRISTIAN.

I must agree. I don't see what is gained. Perhaps it has something to do with being "unconfessed".

Hardly. The Apostle Paul warns against careless partaking of the Eucharist in 1 Cor, Chs. 10 and 11. There is a carelessness about Communion in some Protestant circles (e.g., the United Methodist Church) that is simply breathtaking.
I am a Protestant and would NOT expect to be welcome at Roman Catholic Communion anymore than our elders would welcome the local Catholic Archbishop at our Breaking of the Bread service.
I would like to think that Mrs. Blair ought to convert to Anglicanism for the sake of her family, but that is only my opinion.
